What Valley Neighbors of the Flathead does
Mission
Valley neighbors is a nonprofit organization that cultivates a welcoming environment for immigrants in the flathead valley.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
In 2025, the organization provided housing support, legal referrals and funding, medical and dental referrals, language services, educational system support, assistance in accessing benefits and services including navigating a new cultural landscape. The organization provided funding for 19 immigrant men, women, and children to file for asylum. Our clients worked on paying portions of their legal fees, paying back loans for urgent needs, and worked their way up to paying their rent independently. These contributions enable us to assist even more clients. Housing program: in 2025, with your help we were able to break down barriers to housing, through rental assistance, help with utilities, landlord outreach, and other creative approaches. While housing is a significant budgetary expenditure, we also brought in a significant amount of client rent to help stretch our housing dollars further. Rent spending comprised 161,378, but client rent repaid 104,087 of that cost. Your giving helped to fund a contractor who manages our housing program. Even for those who did not receive financial assistance for rent, our housing coordinator was able to assist families with rent readiness meetings…

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. 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 2023 to 2024, from $30k to $52k (+72%).
How it's funded, over time

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
4 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 79% 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 VALLEY NEIGHBORS OF THE FLATHEAD’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
VALLEY NEIGHBORS OF THE FLATHEAD leans on a few funders — its largest provides 45% of grant income and the top three 79%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
85% 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 VALLEY NEIGHBORS OF THE FLATHEAD.
“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.
Where its funders are
79% of VALLEY NEIGHBORS OF THE FLATHEAD's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $68k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Montana, across 3 states.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $261k 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.
