Mission
Serving individuals with employment obstacles through providing professional apparel and hope, meaningful job training, and placement by developing their God-given potential.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Workforce Development - Liberty's Station Job Training Program equipped participants with hands-on workforce experience, life skills, and mentorship to help them transition into sustainable employment. Through structured training in customer service, operations, and workplace readiness, participants gained both practical skills and personal confidence. This year, we trained twenty-two interns, with many successfully completing the program and moving into employment opportunities or further education. The program continues to be a powerful pathway toward independence and long-term personal growth.

Over the past year, we served nearly a hundred clients, ensuring each person received personalized care and the opportunity to select items that met their specific needs. Beyond meeting basic necessities, the program fostered confidence, restored a sense of worth, and helped our clients take meaningful steps toward stability in their daily lives.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $409k to $562k (+38%).
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: 2021 1% · 2022 0% · 2023 9% · 2024 4% · 2025 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

4 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 45% 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 THE COLLECTIVE AT BUILDING HOPE’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.
How concentrated its funding is
THE COLLECTIVE AT BUILDING HOPE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 28% of grant income and the top three 77%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
72% 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 THE COLLECTIVE AT BUILDING HOPE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 74% · 2019 67% · 2020 98% · 2021 97% · 2022 97% · 2023 100% — 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 THE COLLECTIVE AT BUILDING HOPE's grant income comes from Tennessee funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $25k 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.
