  1. Education & workforce development - Unidosus's education programs ensure all students in the united states have an opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive by expanding access to early childhood education and college-readiness and career programs.

Unidosus's workforce development programs ensure that jobseekers have access to jobs that pay family-sustaining wages and offer opportunities for career advancement while facilitating the entry of low-income workers into the labor market. We collaborate with Unidosus affiliates, other community-based organizations, and corporate partners to provide in-demand skills, build the capacity of community-based workforce development organizations, and advocate for removing barriers in hiring practices.

02The organization over time

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.

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 24 funders to 56 funders, grant income rose $10.0M → $20M.

23 of 144 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.

Left out of every figure on this page: $26M from 16 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Unidos Investment Fund Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money UNIDOSUS raised.

From the IRS filings of UNIDOSUS’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 144 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

UNIDOSUS has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 11% of grant income, and it takes 7 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 7 funders to its left

29% 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 UNIDOSUS.

“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

48% of UNIDOSUS's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 50% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

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. $31M arriving through sponsors registered in 15 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.
