What Still Serving Veterans does
Mission
To make a lasting impact on veterans and their families by providing professional support services that empower and equip them for a secure future.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
During 2025, Still Serving Veterans (ssv) secured over 138 million in new salaries through our career and transition program that supports veterans, transitioning military, and members of the guard and reserve. Our team of counselors, who are all veterans, help clients translate their military skills into civilian language and create both a resume and a linked in profile. Clients also learn salary negotiation and interview skills. We offer intensive workshops to help veterans decide what career path they want to take after military service. Ssv was once again honored to be a primary grantee for the call of duty endowment. In 2025, ssv also provided va benefits assistance to clients and secured 20.1 million in va benefits on their behalf. Ssv served as our governor's lead non-profit advisor on many veteran-related issues. More than 6,500 veterans and their families were served during 2025. Ssv does not charge anyone for our services, which are paid for by the generosity of our grantors and donors. Over 44k in support also helped 135 veterans in need with rent and utility payments during 2025.

The program described on its FY2025 Form 990. Program spending in total: $2,139,969.
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 2019 to 2020, from $319k to $880k (+176%).
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 4% · 2018 3% · 2019 4% · 2020 13% · 2021 3% · 2022 4% · 2023 3% · 2024 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
84% of STILL SERVING VETERANS’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 14 funders, grant income rose $1.1M → $1.3M.
6 of 26 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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: $412k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Community Foundation of Greater Huntsville). These are real filings, and they are not money STILL SERVING VETERANS raised.

How concentrated its funding is
STILL SERVING VETERANS leans on a few funders — its largest provides 83% of grant income and the top three 92%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 95% · 2018 88% · 2019 78% · 2020 78% · 2021 80% · 2022 79% · 2023 75% — 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
57% of STILL SERVING VETERANS'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
STILL SERVING VETERANS draws 91% of its grant income from funders outside Alabama, across 11 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $202k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
