As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
The umch family services foster team specializes in treatment foster care. When used to describe foster care, the word "treatment" refers to an advanced level of therapeutic assistance for the child in care. Our treatment foster families offer safe, nurturing home environments for children to practice new or rediscovered skills when they are not ready or able to live with their families of origin. Treatment foster families receive ongoing training from umch beyond that required for traditional foster care. Treatment families become a skilled, integral part of the umch multidisciplinary team, working closely with and receive 24/7 support from case managers, supervisors, therapists and others based on the needs of the child. We are unique in that our agency provides all treatment team services within the agency itself from psychiatrist, psychologist and nurse to treatment coordinator and supervisor. Our treatment foster care program is goal-oriented, time-limited and family-centered. We recommend homes for licensure, regularly interact with our foster families and operate with a low foster home to case manager ratio, which allows for individualized attention. We also provide…

$751,183 spent$3,298,069 earned by the program10% of program spendingUmch family services has a long-standing heritage in and around adoption. For more than a century, we have been helping to create forever families through adoption. In fact, many children were adopted from what used to be referred to as the children's home in our earlier years. Over the years, we received numerous inquiries about the adoption process fueling the creation of our formal adoption program that operates with a dedicated adoption coordinator to handle all inquiries and to guide our clients through the adoption process.umch family services believes it is important to help forever families stay together. Adoption can bring a unique set of challenges for a child, adoptive parents and extended family throughout the lifelong process of adoption. Our post adoption clinicians understand how a child's pre-adoption experiences influence life in their adoptive home. 649 children served in 2024.

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 2019 to 2020, from $8.9M to $12M (+38%).
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 4% · 2022 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
3% of UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (21% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 4 funders to 6 funders, grant income rose $154k → $174k.
3 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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 UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME’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
UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME leans on a few funders — its largest provides 57% of grant income and the top three 96%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
61% 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 UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 82% · 2018 82% · 2019 78% · 2020 78% · 2021 61% · 2022 83% · 2023 79% — 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
100% of UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 67% 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
UNITED METHODIST CHILDREN'S HOME draws 66% of its grant income from funders outside Ohio, across 4 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $68k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
