What Urge Unite for Reproductive & Gender Equity does
Mission
Urge envisions a world where all people have agency over their own bodies and relationships, and the power, knowledge, and tools to exercise that agency. Urge builds this vision by engaging young people in creating and leading the way to sexual and reproductive justice for all by providing training, field mobilization, and national leadership for a youth-driven agenda.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
General program includes program activities and costs that affect more than one program. Training program is the reproductive justice organizing academy, which emcompasses the organizing institute, the week-long gloria steinem membership conference, 2-day regional reproductive justice leadership institutes and other issue and skill based workshops. Field mobilization includes technical assistance and services for new and existing affiliates as well as issue campaigns, non-partisan voter registration and participation activities, and grassroots education and outreach. National leadership programs include coalitions, collaboration and raising visibility of sexual and reproductive justice issues.

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 $8.2M to $13M (+55%).
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 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of URGE UNITE FOR REPRODUCTIVE & GENDER EQUITY’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (97% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

27% 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.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $6.0M 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.
