What Swim Melbourne Foundation does
Mission
Our vision is to build a state-of-the-art aquatic center in brevard county. Funds raised will be donated to Swim Melbourne Foundation a non-profit charity formed to promote the sport of swimming for families in brevard. Located in palm shores, the aquatic center will include a 10-lane competition pool and a 3-lane teaching pool. The competition pool will be the training facility for the swim melbourne mahi age group and masters teams, with a goal to grow the mahi into national class programs. The teaching pool will attract young families for swim lessons, and host adult fitness, water aerobics, rehabilitation, and triathlon training.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The Swim Melbourne Foundation broke ground on the new palm shores aquatic center on march 23. The aquatic center is slated to open summer 2024, coinciding with the summer olympics in paris. To attain our goal we need to raise 4.5 million dollars for construction, with ongoing operational expenses supported by annual memberships. We believe a state-of-the-art aquatic center is a unique opportunity for brevard to develop the swimming programs that our county deserves.

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 and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $491k to $782k (+59%).
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.
100% of SWIM MELBOURNE FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (39% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2022 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 3 funders, grant income fell $220k → $50k.
3 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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
SWIM MELBOURNE FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 91% 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
100% 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 SWIM MELBOURNE FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2022 100% · 2023 99% — broadly stable.
“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
100% of SWIM MELBOURNE FOUNDATION'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 $250 that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Florida, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $295k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
