What The Demand Project Inc does
Mission
The Demand Project's (TDP) mission is to eradicate child trafficking, online enticement, child sexual abuse material, and the commercial sexual exploitation of children. TDP executes this mission through a comprehensive strategy focused on community prevention and education, crisis intervention, advocacy, and multi-disciplinary long-term residential and non-residential restoration programs for minor survivors.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Restoration - TDP provides a continuum of trauma-informed restorative care for minor victims of sex trafficking and exploitation at no cost. This includes 24/7 crisis response (64% involving minors, 36% adults), victim advocacy, court support, and non-residential care. It also includes long-term care at Mount Arukah, a 54-acre campus running the 2-year, 23-level Journey to Freedom program. In 2025, Mount Arukah served 7 minor residents (4 new), celebrated 2 full program graduates, transitioned 1 resident into public school, and conducted over 40 life-skills classes and 13 educational field trips. Non-residential efforts also achieved multi-generational family reunification.

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. 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 2019 to 2020, from $24k to $916k (+3708%).
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 0% · 2021 0% · 2022 0% · 2023 10% · 2024 0% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
72% of THE DEMAND PROJECT INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (94% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 8 funders, grant income rose $13k → $50k.
9 of 31 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 28% 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 DEMAND PROJECT INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 29 of 31 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
THE DEMAND PROJECT INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 13% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
52% 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 DEMAND PROJECT INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 57% · 2020 44% · 2021 25% · 2022 38% · 2023 50% — 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
63% of THE DEMAND PROJECT INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 35% 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
70% of THE DEMAND PROJECT INC's grant income comes from Oklahoma funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $181k arriving through sponsors registered in 8 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.
