What Rutland West Neighborhood Housing Services Inc does
Mission
To strengthen the development of a regional economy by promoting safe, efficient and stable housing and community projects through education, technical assistance, and financial services.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Home Repair Program: The Home Repair Program consists of Neighborworks of Western Vermont project coordinators that oversee a repair project for low-to-moderate income homeowners in Addison, Rutland, and Bennington counties that are receiving a loan and/or grant from Neighborworks of Western Vermont (NWWVT). Typical home repair projects include new wells, septic systems, heating systems, roof replacement, structural work, plumbing, electrical, and weatherization. As the loan and/or grant process proceeds, project coordinators are completing a health and safety evaluation of the home, working with the homeowner to create a scope of work, helping with contractors, and obtaining estimates for the project. Once the loan and/or grant is approved, the project coordination continues with project oversight and escrow payments to contractors, helping at every step until the project is complete, homeowner is satisfied, and the home is repaired and safe.

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 2023 to 2024, from $18M to $20M (+13%).
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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
99% 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 Rutland West Neighborhood Housing Services Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 98% · 2018 85% · 2019 73% · 2020 95% · 2021 61% · 2022 52% · 2023 98% — broadly stable.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $233k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
