Over the past 5 years we have seen a disturbing trend whereby children are having more trouble at school, with friends, and even at home.

Program
Streetlight mission has joined the non-profit covenant house of new jersey. Covenant house is the leader in caring for homeless, abandoned, and trafficked youth. They have been serving the young for more than 40 years. They now have facilities in 31 cities and in 6 countries. This union will leverage the strengths of both organizations, providing comprehensive, life changing, help to more homeless youth. Covenant house new jersey's comprehensive continuum of care provides housing, food, medical, mental health, legal, job assistance, and spiritual care services as kids move from homelessness to self-sufficiency. As part of covenant house, the streetlight property located at 424 westminster ave., elizabeth will be completed. There, 20 youth between the ages of 18 and 21 will have a safe place to begin their future. Each resident will receive basic necessities like food, shelter, and clothing, as well as medical, mental health, legal, job assistance, and spiritual care services through the covenant house continuum of care. The goal is to help each child journey towards self-sufficiency and a future that is filled with hope.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2018: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $11k → $9k.
1 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 46% 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 STREETLIGHT MISSION INC’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.

STREETLIGHT MISSION INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 52% 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
46% 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 STREETLIGHT MISSION INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 95% · 2018 100% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

Where its funders are

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $9k 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.
