Residents receive safe and secure housing along with specialized trauma-informed treatments to address their victimization. The Hallow had their first participants in May of 2025.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
Rapid re-housing services is one of the most effective ways to move homeless households and those experiencing violence to permanent housing and economic stability. Rapid re-housing places a priority on moving residents quickly to their own housing using a variety of strategies. When a person/and or their family enters emergency housing, the first priority subsequent to safety is developing a housing plan. Through the use of an objective evidence-based assessment tool, residents are assessed for a type of housing that best meets their needs and are assigned to a housing team. Housing locators will assist people in obtaining housing and with move-in. Case managers assist up to one year with housing stabilization services and to reduce recidivism. Housing stabilization assists with a variety of service that help support safe permament housing and wellbeing. 234 individuals were assisted this year.

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 $3.3M to $5.1M (+58%).
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: 2017 39% · 2018 55% · 2019 58% · 2020 57% · 2021 48% · 2022 53% · 2023 47% · 2024 43% · 2025 44%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 16 funders to 21 funders, grant income rose $274k → $581k.
10 of 53 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 22% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $1.7M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Samaritan House Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money Samaritan House Inc raised.
From the IRS filings of Samaritan House Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 53 funders by total. 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
Samaritan House Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 20% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
44% 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 Samaritan House Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 50% · 2018 45% · 2019 23% · 2020 31% · 2021 32% · 2022 53% · 2023 21% — 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.
How long its funders stay
48% of Samaritan House Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 58% give in more than one year at all.
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
95% of Samaritan House Inc's grant income comes from Virginia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.2M arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.
