What Texas Ramp Project does
Mission
Texas Ramp Project provides free wheelchair ramps to elderly and disabled clients in financial need as identified by local health care providers and agencies. Ramps are built exclusively with volunteer labor keeping costs to a minimum. Ramps are built without regard to race religion ethnicity age or gender. Our vision is that no Texas resident shall lack safe access to and from his or her home because of financial limitations.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
During 2024 Texas Ramp Project constructed 2727 ramps which were provided at no charge. The average length of the ramps was 29.4 feet. In addition Texas Ramp Project received in kind donations of $169,573 in donated use of warehouse and storage facilities. This is included in the reconciliation of revenue and expenses to the audited financial statements schedule D part XI and XII

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 2022 to 2023, from $1.3M to $1.9M (+45%).
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: 2020 6% · 2021 2% · 2022 9% · 2023 6% · 2024 6%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
97% of TEXAS RAMP PROJECT’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (39% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 25 funders to 62 funders, grant income rose $406k → $1.0M.
23 of 139 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 24% 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 TEXAS RAMP PROJECT’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 139 funders by total. 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
TEXAS RAMP PROJECT has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 11% of grant income, and it takes 22 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 22 funders to its left
50% 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 TEXAS RAMP PROJECT.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 45% · 2018 11% · 2019 9% · 2020 17% · 2021 24% · 2022 12% · 2023 16% — 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
60% of TEXAS RAMP PROJECT's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 65% 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
94% of TEXAS RAMP PROJECT's grant income comes from Texas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.5M arriving through sponsors registered in 11 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.
