What Sustain Floyd Foundation Inc does
Mission
Sustainfloyd is a rural non-profit in the blue ridge mountains that undertakes projects to support the environment, agriculture, renewable energy and community well being.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
The floyd farmer's market is sustainfloyd's largest program. Every community needs a place where people can gather to share, learn & celebrate. Opened in may, 2010, the market is a 3,000 square foot timber frame structure located in the center of town. The market connects consumers to locally grown fresh produce and locally made artisan goods. Our market has advanced an objective to develop a local food system and to encourage a local creative economy and local entrepreneurship. To provide local food for the whole community, sustainfloyd provides an ebt machine at the market. In addition, with funding from leap and also as a program service of sustainfloyd, snap beneficiaries may receive a dollar for dollar match on the amount swiped on their ebt card, up to a maximum of 50 per day. 5 kids kash slips are handed out to kids 6 to 10 years old and may be used at the market to purchase fruits, vegetables or plants. Market sponsors are acknowledged with privilege of hanging their banner under the pavilion.
$39,410 spent52% of program spendingBeginning in 2023, sustainfloyd is working with floyd tourixm on a floyd farm trail for visitors and local residents to explore the potential for farms and food businesses in floyd county to incorporate agritourism into their organizations
$16,353 spent22% of program spendingSustainfloyd's other programs include the education and film series, food guide, recycling/re-use project and biodiversity initiatives. Since 2011 sustainfloyd has been showing a series of documentary films relating to our mission. It is one way to enliven the local discussion of issues relating to securing a sustainable future. Our film working group considers ideas for films submitted by board and community members and tries to offer documentaries covering a wide range of topics. Our hope is that these events offer ideas and hope of ways that both individuals and community groups can make an impact. Sponsorships are welcome to help cover the cost of our films and will be gratefully acknowledged. In recent years we have been offering free online screenings of important environmental documentaries. Our food guide to food resources in our commuinty is updated annually. The food guide is used by groups and individuals to find food or a food pantry in the community. During 2021 sustainfloyd began collecting recycling at the floyd farmer's market monthly. This project continues into 2024.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $104k to $124k (+19%).
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.
56% of SUSTAIN FLOYD FOUNDATION INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (77% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income rose $250 → $25k.
4 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 97% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
SUSTAIN FLOYD FOUNDATION INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 69% of grant income and the top three 97%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
97% 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 SUSTAIN FLOYD FOUNDATION INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 92% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 60% — 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.
Where its funders are
97% of SUSTAIN FLOYD FOUNDATION INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $2k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Virginia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $56k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
