What Vb Home Now Inc does
Mission
The Organization's mission is to mobilize the local community to help the neediest among us by supporting and enhancing the community system of services, programs, and facilities that work to prevent and make homelessness rare, brief and nonrecurring. The mission is accomplished through fund raising and providing resources into the community.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
On its FY2025 return the organization reported starting a significant new program and a significant change in how it conducts a program.
In prior years, program services were accomplished either through a grant request and application process or provided directly to the Virginia Beach Department of Housing and Neighborhood Preservation from funds received by the Organization through restricted grants specifically to be used for that purpose. In 2025, the Organization made an outright gift of $50,000 to the Charles Barker Champions for Kids, a 501(c)(3) organization. This organization is committed to the belief that the future of our community is dependent on the physical, emotional, and educational well-being of our youth. This is the first year that a gift was made to this organization and will be used to support community programs, education and scholarships for youth in Hampton Roads. These programs include counseling for teens, drug and alcohol awareness (a significant issue with our homeless youth), educational scholarships, and community mentorship programs.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
In the prior year, VB Home Now, Inc. instituted a policy to limit grant awards through its grant application process for program services to any specific organization that had received grant awards for three consecutive years, at which time the potential grantee would not be allowed to file a grant application for one year. As a result of this new policy, during 2025, several organizations that had received grant awards in the past were not allowed to submit grant applications for 2025 resulting in fewer grant awards in 2025 than prior years.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).
The Organization provided an outright gift of $50,000 to Charles Barker's Champions for Kids, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization committed to the belief that the future of our community is dependent on the physical and emotional well-being of our youth. These funds will be used for programs in Hampton Roads such as counseling for teens, drug and alcohol awareness (a large problem with the homeless youth), educational scholarships and community mentorship programs.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 2020 to 2021, from $518k to $675k (+30%).
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.
101% of VB HOME NOW INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 4 funders, grant income fell $53k → $48k.
2 of 13 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 36% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
VB HOME NOW INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 36% of grant income and the top three 82%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
80% 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 VB HOME NOW INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 95% · 2019 95% · 2020 74% · 2021 68% · 2022 76% · 2023 96% — broadly stable.
“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
43% of VB HOME NOW INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 46% 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
95% of VB HOME NOW INC's grant income comes from Virginia funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $219k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
