What Stars United Global Outreach does
Mission
To create the Blueprint that fosters academic achievement, financial independence, and personal development empowering youth and young adults between the ages of 10-24 to succeed academically and economically.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Founded in 2015, Stars United Global Outreach (SUGO) operates under a foundational, transformative philosophy: purposefully shifting the societal narrative for underserved youth from "at-risk" to "at-promise." Guided by an intentional Race Equity Culture, the organization delivers 100% free, high-impact out-of-school programs, academic readiness tracks, character development initiatives, and social enrichment activities. SUGO meticulously serves underprivileged children and young adults aged 10 to 24 who reside in under-resourced neighborhoods (such as communities impacted by food deserts) and attend struggling, underfunded schools in the Greater Dallas community.

Through structured mentoring, specialized workshops, and community partnerships, SUGO has served hundreds…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 $28k to $48k (+74%).
How it's funded, over time

Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $2k → $28k.
1 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 3% 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 STARS UNITED GLOBAL OUTREACH’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
STARS UNITED GLOBAL OUTREACH has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 24% 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
67% 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 STARS UNITED GLOBAL OUTREACH.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 57% · 2020 69% · 2021 97% · 2022 71% · 2023 35% — 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
50% of STARS UNITED GLOBAL OUTREACH's funders are still giving 2 years after their first grant; 22% 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
STARS UNITED GLOBAL OUTREACH draws 52% of its grant income from funders outside Texas, across 6 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
