What The Southampton Fresh Air Home does

Mission

The Southampton Fresh Air Home is a nonprofit residential center offering summer camp sessions and year-round programs for children and young adults with physical disabilities. Our mission is to provide an enriching, recreational and educational experience. We are committed to helping our children develop physically, emotionally, and educationally, with the goal of fostering self-esteem, maturity and independence through a broadly balanced program, while providing their families with a well-deserved respite. The Southampton Fresh Air Home is dedicated to improving and expanding its programs and facilities as new opportunities, technology and financial support become available.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

The arts and crafts studio is equipped and staffed to provide adaptive visual arts opportunities. There are computer science and assistive technology programs designed to provide age appropriate, meaningful activities. Sfah recently added a sensory garden and meditation room. All programs are designed to supplement and enhance learning, personal development and self confidence.

Camp fees cover approximately 30% of the cost of a camper's stay. In addition to this support provided to every child who attends, 80% of campers receive financial aid to pay stated camp fees. All admission decisions are made without regard to race, creed or country of national origin. The camp accomodates boys and girls in equal numbers, and all campers…

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.

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 26 funders to 45 funders, grant income rose $270k → $699k.

11 of 109 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 24% 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 SOUTHAMPTON FRESH AIR HOME’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 109 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.

26% 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 SOUTHAMPTON FRESH AIR HOME.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.1M 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.
