What Shared Housing Services does
Mission
Shared Housing Services provides affordable, alternative housing solutions to encourage independence and self-sufficiency in individuals and families through the Referral/Match Share and Transitional Family Housing programs.
As stated on its FY2021 Form 990.
Program
2021 was a monumental year for Shared Housing Services (SHS).In April of 2021, SHS Board of Directors passed a resolution to explore the possibility of merging SHS Programs, Staff, and Assets with an affinity organization to build capacity to serve the growing need in the community. After vetting eleven organizations, the Board authorized the Executive Director and Board President to approach and negotiate and possible merger with Associated Ministries. Both organizations contracted with outside consultants to complete the due diligence process for merging the two organizations. On October 27, 2022, SHS Board of Directors unanimously passed a resolution authorizing the merger of SHS with Associated Ministries to become effective on December 31, 2022, at 5:00pm Pacific Time. Also at the October 27th board meeting, SHS Board of Directors unanimously passed a resolution to dissolve SHS as an entity effective December 31, 2022, at 5:00pm Pacific Time.Due to pursuing a merger with an affinity organization, SHS did not conduct any fundraising activities after April. SHS did apply for and received a second PPP loan of $50,300 which was forgiven by the Small Business Association in…

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.
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 $1.3M to $0 (−100%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 6 funders to 3 funders, grant income fell $91k → $24k.
3 of 31 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 14% 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 Shared Housing Services’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 31 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
Shared Housing Services has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 13% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
38% 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 Shared Housing Services.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 33% · 2018 26% · 2019 28% · 2020 13% · 2021 17% · 2022 37% · 2023 42% — growing more concentrated.
“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
21% of Shared Housing Services's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 45% 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
86% of Shared Housing Services's grant income comes from Washington funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $85k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
