What Secretary of the Air Force Special Projects H does
Mission
The mission of this organization is to educate the public about the history and legacy of the secretary of the air force office of special projects (safsp) and erect permanent monuments to the accomplishments of this organization.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Officers and volunteers from the safsp heritage fund developed the preliminary designs for three granite monuments to be installed at the national museum of the united states air force in dayton, ohio. These preliminary designs were then coordinated with a selected vendor for the monuments, as well as with the governing staff of the museum and other appropriate government agencies. An order was placed for the monuments and an initial deposit was provider to the monument provider. The remaining payments are to be made incrementally until the final installation at the museum in year 2025.
$0 spent
The program described on its FY2025 Form 990. Program spending in total: $0.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 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 2024 to 2025, from $163k to $104k (−36%).
How it's funded, over time

100% of SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE SPECIAL PROJECTS H’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (78% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
3 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE SPECIAL PROJECTS H’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
SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE SPECIAL PROJECTS H leans on a few funders — its largest provides 63% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE SPECIAL PROJECTS H.
“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
100% of SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE SPECIAL PROJECTS H'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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $59k 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.
