What Renew America Together Inc does

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Outreach & education:renew america together uses a historical perspective to explore american civility and place today's partisan atmosphere in proper context. American democracy has always been conflictual and dynamic by design-founded on the principle of e pluribus unum ("out of many, one") and sustained by the ongoing competition of ideas, values, and priorities among the american people. This history is best understood through overlapping political, economic, and increasingly global cycles that span decades.for the past century, the united states has managed to balance action and reaction with limited acrimony and little bloodshed, thanks to a functioning system of checks and balances operating at many levels. Yet there is no guarantee that history will not repeat itself, nor that future cycles will remain as stable. Continued competition is inevitable so long as our government is based on a constitution that separates powers and ensures each branch can check and balance the others.the central questions are: are our institutions healthy enough to withstand the challenges ahead?

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $49,323.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $184k to $40k (−78%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 6% · 2021 6%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
90% of RENEW AMERICA TOGETHER INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (84% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income fell $169k → $20k.
3 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 89% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of RENEW AMERICA TOGETHER INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
RENEW AMERICA TOGETHER INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 59% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
95% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund RENEW AMERICA TOGETHER INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 49% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
89% of RENEW AMERICA TOGETHER INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $30k that is directly attributable, 67% of it comes from funders outside Arkansas, across 3 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $256k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
