01What it does

What Thrive Central Oregon does

Mission

To connect individuals to the housing and community resources they seek.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

On its FY2024 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.

The organization started a new contract where they make housing payments on behalf of pacificsource-hrsn and then are reimbursed.

Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).

  1. Thrive Central Oregon (thrive) helps overcome housing and financial insecurity in our community through a holistic approach that connects families and individuals to private and public resources they seek. Individuals and families who are living in poverty and often in needof social services and support. A lack of knowledge of what the community has to offer, transportation and access barriers, and difficulty in navigating systems are primary reasons individuals and familiies are unable to access these community service supports. Thrive bridges the gap for community members, providing phone support, office appointments and drop-ins to connect with individuals where they are in public spaces. Thrive has a community-based advocate to meet one-on-one, to offer assessments and hands-on assistance to link to permanent housing, health care, mental health support, employment, benefits and basic needsassistance. For the year ended 6/30/2025, thrive advocates met with 2508 central oregonians, connecting 179 to stable housing they sought.

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $22k → $125k.

4 of 16 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 6% 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 THRIVE CENTRAL OREGON’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

THRIVE CENTRAL OREGON leans on a few funders — its largest provides 42% of grant income and the top three 76%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

49% 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 THRIVE CENTRAL OREGON.

“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. 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. $45k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 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.
