Mission
To tell others about jesus christ and to disciple believers in what it means to be in christ and to be indwelt by christ.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Bible school - a non-denominational bible school program for college age students, the two-year course is designed to move students towards an understanding of the indwelling person of jesus christ through the study and application of gods word. The students spend twenty-trhee hours of class per week learning about christ through the bible and guest and resident lecturers. The curriculum is in part a study of the old and new testaments, plus speaking methods, discipleship, missions and evangelism, worldviews, and principles of christian living. Each week every student is also involved in an outreach to the local community, which includes but is not limited to mentoring in the local schools, visisting nursing homes, and organizing after school clubs for children.

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 2022 to 2023, from $3.6M to $5.1M (+45%).
How it's funded, over time

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

TORCHBEARERS - HIS HILL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 59% of grant income and the top three 89%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 TORCHBEARERS - HIS HILL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 91% · 2022 93% · 2023 95% — 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
89% of TORCHBEARERS - HIS HILL'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 $7k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Texas, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $58k 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. 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.
