What The Welcome House Inc does
Mission
The welcome house is a home for hope and healing where women with barriers to successful living can learn to put their past behind and discover and create a new future. The home will be licensed for up to ten women who are transitioning out of treatment programs, jail, abusive relationships, or other situations that put them at a greater risk of homelessness. The welcome house will provide supportive services for our residents such as: mentor network, work readiness and placement assistance, individualized goal setting, financial management, life skills, self-care, community connections, nutrition and cooking healthy meals, individual advocacy, healthy relationships, spiritual support and positive parenting.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Provide a transitional home for adult women who are trying to break free from the grips of addiction, and to promote long-term sobriety, stability, and self-sufficiency. Program support given includes such things as: workforce development, volunteer development and community connections. The corporation also operates a thrift store which is used to help people in need acquire furniture, clothing and household goods. We also help connect them with other support and resources within the community. A home has also been purchased to home transitioning women.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 $99k to $398k (+304%).
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: 2021 7% · 2022 1% · 2023 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
61% of THE WELCOME HOUSE INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (37% 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.

Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base held at 2 funders, grant income rose $2k → $20k.
2 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 61% 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 WELCOME HOUSE INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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 WELCOME HOUSE INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 39% of grant income and the top three 73%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
61% 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 WELCOME HOUSE INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 75% · 2022 67% · 2023 50% — 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.
Where its funders are
61% of THE WELCOME HOUSE INC'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 $50k that is directly attributable, 75% of it comes from Minnesota funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $78k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
