As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Youth homelessness is happening in plain sight. Kids are being kicked out. Sleeping on couches, on floors that aren't theirs, in cars. Trying to stay invisible while trying to survive. In the United States, over 4.2 million young people experience homelessness each year. Over fifty thousand youth sleep on the streets for six months or more each year, and more than half a million experience episodes of homelessness for a week or longer. But that cycle can be broken. StandUp for Kids is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to ending youth homelessness by building trust, breaking cycles of instability, and supporting young people as they transition to safe, self-sufficient adulthood. Our commitment extends beyond crisis services, providing sustained support with guidance and check-ins that help ensure lasting stability and independence through key transition periods. Support may include food access, mentoring, housing stabilization, and education and workforce navigation.

Housing navigation includes coaching, advocacy, and practical problem-solving, while mentoring is paired with…

The program described on its FY2025 Form 990. Program spending in total: $2,691,547.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 2019 to 2020, from $2.1M to $3.3M (+54%).
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: 2023 27% · 2024 21% · 2025 24%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 20 funders to 39 funders, grant income rose $404k → $447k.
30 of 147 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 50% 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 StandUp for Kids’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 147 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
StandUp for Kids has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 16% of grant income, and it takes 10 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 10 funders to its left
68% 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 StandUp for Kids.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 39% · 2018 31% · 2019 29% · 2020 13% · 2021 18% · 2022 15% · 2023 12% — 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
25% of StandUp for Kids's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 38% 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
StandUp for Kids draws 98% of its grant income from funders outside Georgia, across 27 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.1M arriving through sponsors registered in 17 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.

Grants and contracts to this organization from federal (USASpending) and state checkbooks, reconciled to its EIN. $549k on record.
