$845,718 spentof which $19,880 as grants$852,397 earned by the program42% of program spendingTucker maxon's early intervention (ei) program for deaf children ages 1 month to 3 years is a family's first step in a journey from diagnosis to mainstreaming. Babies who are identified as deaf at birth begin wearing hearing aids while still in the crib. Babies with severe to profound hearing losses often receive cochlear implants when they are ten to twelve months old. We teach toddlers and their families to use their new technology and begin to learn language. We utilize an auditory verbal approach to teaching spoken language. This means children learn to listen and talk, the same way hearing children do. At Tucker Maxon School, our collaborative, family centered approach to ei develops a child's listening and spoken language abilities while supporting the family in a language rich environment at home. Tucker maxon offers a wide range of services for infants and toddlers and their families including audiology and language environment analysis systems (lenas). Our early intervention educators meet weekly with local families at home and at school, and in play groups. We provide tele-intervention via video conference for out-of-area families. In ei, we provide the child with early…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
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 $3.4M to $3.9M (+14%).
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 16% · 2022 18% · 2023 10% · 2024 11% · 2025 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 5 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 16 funders to 20 funders, grant income rose $282k → $436k.
11 of 51 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 17% 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 TUCKER MAXON SCHOOL’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 51 funders by total. 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
TUCKER MAXON SCHOOL has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 13% of grant income, and it takes 6 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left
25% 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 TUCKER MAXON SCHOOL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 43% · 2018 16% · 2019 23% · 2020 22% · 2021 14% · 2022 38% · 2023 17% — 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
54% of TUCKER MAXON SCHOOL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 69% 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
TUCKER MAXON SCHOOL draws 70% of its grant income from funders outside Oregon, across 11 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $698k arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
