What The Griefcare Place Inc does
Mission
To provide a safe place where grievers gather together, under the guidance of trained facilitators, to educate, encourage and uplift one another through the grieving and healing process.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
In 2024 the griefcare place provided 3,104 hours of grief support services free of charge to 370 individuals. There were 131 support group meetings plus 27 special programs held. Participants in our groups and programs gain knowledge and understanding of practical ways to work through the four tasks of mourning: 1) accept the reality of the loss; 2) process the pain of grief; 3) adjust to a world without the deceased; and, 4) find an enduring connection with the deceased while moving forward with life. Our support groups run continuously and are open ended, allowing participants to participate for as long as they feel the need. This is important since the time needed to grieve and heal varies depending on the person and their circumstances

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 2023 to 2024, from $130k to $166k (+29%).
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 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
95% of THE GRIEFCARE PLACE INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (87% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

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.

71% of THE GRIEFCARE PLACE INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 86% 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.

Where its funders are

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $17k 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.
