What Trans Pride Initiative does
Mission
Trans Pride Initiative empowers trans and gender diverse persons to rise above social barriers to more equitable healthcare, housing, employment, and education. This includes these program areas as well as general support, anti-violence work, and support work in prisons. The geographic focus is the Dallas, Texas, region, with incarceration support extending across Texas.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Prisoner Support -- In 2025, Trans Pride Initiative supported through letter writing and advocacy approximately 284 incarcerated persons, the majority being trans and queer prisoners in Texas. Approximately 8 volunteers provided about 57 hours of service for this program, and staff volunteered almost 1600 hours. For the year, approximately 780 letters were received, and approximately 570 responses were sent. Staff volunteered over 1,000 hours of additional time to various other prison services tasks, including significant time to documenting and preparing comment letters concerning PREA audit deficiencies and preparing a report on PREA noncompliance in Texas (published in January 2026). TPI also supported a volunteer to attend a prison issues conference during the year.

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.
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 $256k to $340k (+33%).
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.
100% of TRANS PRIDE INITIATIVE’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income rose $17k → $64k.
4 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 28% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
TRANS PRIDE INITIATIVE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 69% of grant income and the top three 87%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
97% 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 TRANS PRIDE INITIATIVE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 89% · 2018 56% · 2019 99% · 2020 68% · 2021 98% · 2022 89% · 2023 53% — 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.
How long its funders stay
50% of TRANS PRIDE INITIATIVE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 40% give in more than one year at all.
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.
Where its funders are
TRANS PRIDE INITIATIVE draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Texas, across 4 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $81k 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.
