What Tios for Hope does
Mission
Overcoming poverty and injustice in Guatemala through Christ's transforming love.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Tios for Hope supports education in Guatemala. Our Child Sponsorship program partners with Mana de Vida school in Escuintla. Sponsors become "aunts and uncles" to impoverished children there. The sponsor communicates with them and encourages them as they grow and change. Each child receives 17 meals per week, school uniforms, basic medical care, excellent education, spiritual direction, and additional physical, emotional, and family support. We also support students learning a microbusiness trade such as welding or baking as well as providing extra income and bonuses to teachers. Other programs include building of a new campus of Mana de Vida School and construction and repair of students' homes.

The organization over time
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.
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 $205k to $96k (−53%).
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.
6% of TIOS FOR HOPE’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 5 funders, grant income rose $8 → $58k.
5 of 6 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 94% 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 TIOS FOR HOPE’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
TIOS FOR HOPE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 45% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
94% 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 TIOS FOR HOPE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 41% · 2022 54% · 2023 51% — 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
94% of TIOS FOR HOPE'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 $22k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Georgia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $352k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
