What The Knights Community Hospital Equipment Lend Program Services does
Mission
The organization provides medical equipment for persons in convalescence or with permanent disabilities who are unable to obtain the items needed for their recovery or long-term care. The organization will store, sanitize, repair and transport the used equipment for these individuals.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Clients are provided with home-use medical equipment including hospital beds, standard and electric wheelchairs, walkers, canes, lift chairs, bathroom equipment and other items. Those served are unable to obtain such equipment from conventional sources, and each has his/her own story. Inventory is donated from individuals and other healthcare organizations. Volunteers repair donated equipment to working condition and fit recipients with the equipment to provide optimum comfort. Additional volunteers maintain records of equipment donated and loaned out. During 2021 a shipment loaded with used medical equipment was taken to san felipe, mexico even with the covid border restrictions. In addition, the organization outreached from three locations to provide equipment to persons in over 120 communities in wa and throughout the pacific northwest. During 2021, the service to the communities remained strong with volunteers and staff responding to the covid challenges with a can do attitude. The organization was designated an essential business in the health care network in wa state and remained open to provide durable medical equipment

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 2021 to 2022, from $600k to $950k (+58%).
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 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of THE KNIGHTS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL EQUIPMENT LEND PROGRAM SERVICES’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (62% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 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.

6 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 49% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 KNIGHTS COMMUNITY HOSPITAL EQUIPMENT LEND PROGRAM SERVICES.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 54% · 2022 98% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $113k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
