What The Haven of Grace does
Mission
As a ministry of faith, our mission is to empower pregnant women to overcome homelessness and to achieve stability. See schedule owith expectations of accountability, we provide a nurturing home, educational programs and long-term support for mother and child. The Haven of Grace strives to instill hope, dignity and the pride of independence, one family at a time.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Maternity center: The Haven of Grace maternity center is our first tier of programming. We provide food, shelter and basic needs for up to 10 pregnant mothers (18 and older) and their young children (if any) at a time. Our campus is a safe and nurturing home for the women while they prepare for a healthy delivery and stabilize their path for creating a safe and nurturing environment for the whole family. We maintained our core educational offerings and focused on creating a trauma-informed safe space and service organization.

The apartments are for young mothers who needed more time to get on their feet to live independently within the safety net they have established with the haven. These transitional apartments are where we see young mothers gain the confidence and control to direct their lives with intention rather than survive them. Many of the babies born in the maternity shelter become toddlers here, and we have the beautiful joy of watching a family grow together. Tenants in "the quad" pay 30% of their income for rent and can reside in the fully furnished apartments for up to two years.

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 2020 to 2021, from $6.0M to $7.9M (+31%).
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: 2017 23% · 2018 38% · 2019 39% · 2020 44% · 2021 26% · 2022 40% · 2023 44% · 2024 28% · 2025 28%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
88% of THE HAVEN OF GRACE’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (39% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 9 funders to 18 funders, grant income rose $75k → $292k.
11 of 56 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 51% 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 HAVEN OF GRACE’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 56 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 HAVEN OF GRACE has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 23% 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
66% 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 HAVEN OF GRACE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 67% · 2018 73% · 2019 56% · 2020 57% · 2021 37% · 2022 24% · 2023 26% — 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
65% of THE HAVEN OF GRACE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 46% 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
51% of THE HAVEN OF GRACE's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $803k that is directly attributable, 90% of it comes from Missouri funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $830k arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
