Programs
Emergency program - at the mission, our emergency program is the first stop for all clients seeking assistance. Each person has a unique story that has led them to our doors. Many have hit rock-bottom and have no place else to turn. Support of the mission provides a safe haven to individual men and women and families in need, including married couples, single mothers and single fathers. Our guests receive nutritious meals and a clean bed, along with the opportunity to take a deep breath and assess their situation during the first seven days of their stay. Our staff works closely with each guest to create a personalized plan to transition out of homelessness as they engage in one of our other three programs: transitional, workforce, workforce assistance.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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 2020 to 2021, from $7.1M to $9.9M (+40%).
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: 2023 8%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
67% 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 RESCUE MISSION OF MAHONING VALLEY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 64% · 2018 70% · 2019 56% · 2020 61% · 2021 42% · 2022 25% · 2023 22% — diversifying over time.

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
56% of RESCUE MISSION OF MAHONING VALLEY'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 $1.5M that is directly attributable, 74% of it comes from Ohio funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.9M arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
