What Rim Power Inc does
Mission
Rim power is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote an accessible world in which every wheelchair user is an integrated member of society - viewed as enabled rather than disabled.rim power was founded in 2016 by mohammad sayed, an inventor, entrepreneur and disability rights activist who has overcome physical and emotional wounds inflicted by wartime violence against civilians in his native afghanistan. Moh's mother died when he was 5 years old, and 11 days later, he became paralyzed when his house was destroyed. His father took him to an ngo-operated hospital, where he lived for seven years until an american nurse brought the 12-year-old to the u.s. To rebuild his life. He enrolled in nuvu, an innovation school for middle- and high-school students in cambridge,massachusetts and in 2016 graduated from cambridge rindge and latin school. During this time he invented and has since patented numerous adaptive tools for use by people in wheelchairs.
As stated on its FY2022 Form 990-EZ.

Unlike traditional action heroes, moh's comic book characters are peace heroes based on reallife stories of wheelchair users in the developing world who are challenging the status quo. They use non-violence to fight for equality, justice and freedom, often in regions where individuals with disabilities may be shamed or hidden from public view. His first comic book (and companion coloring book), wheelchair man, published in 2017, was based on moh's own life story. This superhero has the ability to show the damage of planned crimes to would-be terrorists before their crimes are committed. Wheelchair man uses his powers not only to prevent harm but to help others who have experienced their own losses due to the brutality of war. Wheelchair man 2: captain afghanistan, published in 2018, is based on moh's…

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 2018 to 2019, from $8k to $46k (+497%).
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.
100% of RIM POWER INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).

From the IRS filings of RIM POWER 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.

RIM POWER INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 100% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $26 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
