01What it does

What The Settlement Club does

Mission

To promote healing and growth in children, young adults and families by providing a continuum of care and resources. We build a foundation for children to develop self-efficacy and the materials needed to restore permanent well-being.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Our general residential operation includes residential treatment care and transitional living services. Our residential programs serve girls ages 11-21 in a structured home-like setting with 24-hour therapeutic support. We have a houseparent model, which provides consistency of care and healing through trusting relationships. Each home is supported by a licensed therapist who is responsible for each child's treatment plan. All residents have access to individual, family and group therapy. Our transitional living program provides efficiency apartments for women 18-21. They receive case management, therapy and independent living skills training. All former residents are eligible for aftercare services to increase self-sufficiency as well as educational and professional success.

  2. Our foster & adoption program works with child protective services (cps) to provide either a temporary or permanent stable home for children who can no longer remain in their current living situation. Transition into a foster home can be a challenging time for children. To best support families during this transition period, our fap trains foster and adoptive families in trauma-informed care and supports them through the foster and adoption process.

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.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 13 funders to 22 funders, grant income rose $223k → $762k.

15 of 73 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 32% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $2.5M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest The Settlement Club Endowment Fund). These are real filings, and they are not money THE SETTLEMENT CLUB raised.

From the IRS filings of THE SETTLEMENT CLUB’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 73 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 SETTLEMENT CLUB has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 19% 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

46% 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 SETTLEMENT CLUB.

“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

38% of THE SETTLEMENT CLUB's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 51% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.5M arriving through sponsors registered in 14 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.
