What The Denan Project Inc does
Mission
The project is a grassroots organization whose volunteer members secure the necessary resources to provide free medical care, potable water, agricultural training, education, and other critical services for the people of denan, ethiopia and the surrounding villages, and to other impoverished communities in peru,and mongolia.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Denan hospital-in denan ethiopia, a clinic was opened in april 2004, which has grown into a fully staffed hospital. There are programs for polio eradiction, tb treatment, vaccination, supplemental feeding, health education, pre-natal and well baby care, and female anti-genital mutilation. Related to agriculture, the project which had provided a tractor, farm implements and drought-resistant seeds to help the various farming cooperatives grow much needed crops, has now given the tractor to a group of elders to use for the benefit of the community. As water is scarce, the project uses its water tanker to provide water to its hospital on a regular basis and is used during times of drought to help supply water to denan. The project also provides for emergency food shipments on occasion. All medical and other services are provided free to surrounding villages. The project also provides micro-loans to organized groups to help them start cottage industries or other uses depending on request from community and availability of funding. As of september 2024 we are no longer supporting denan in ethiopia as the community is now self-sustaining.
$127,562 spentof which $127,562 as grants67% of program spendingPeru-the project built a health facility in the small, high andean town of uratari, which opened in august 2010. The health facility provides medical and dental care, education and medical outreach programs, and provides mirco-loans to organized groups to help them start cottage industries. The health ministry has since taken over this location and the project is no longer supporting this location. In 2019 the project established a free boarding school in uratari peru in order to give children from small surrounding towns, where there are no high schools, an opportunity to receive a higher education. In august 2024, a new health center was opened in cusibamba which provides medical and dental care, education and medical outreach programs, and provides micro-loans to organized groups to help them start cottage industries.

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 2018 to 2019, from $655k to $534k (−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.
97% of THE DENAN PROJECT INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Leadership and staff
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 5 funders to 6 funders, grant income rose $13k → $116k.
5 of 14 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 10% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

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
THE DENAN PROJECT INC draws 99% of its grant income from funders outside Florida, across 5 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $72k 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.
