What Veterans Support Foundation does
Mission
The foundation is a non-profit now based in detroit, mi. Its dual functions are providing funds to nonprofit organizations to support community-based, veteran-related projects in the u.s. And running several houses as transitional and permanent residences for homeless veterans.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
The foundation owns and operates four residential properties located in connecticut. Three comprise the foundations's transitional housing program, which provides up to twenty-four homeless veterans the opportunity to live in a secure, supported environment while each works on his recovery. One residence provides permanent housing to six veterans. The veterans remain in active treatment with the u.s. Department of veterans affairs (va) while they reside in the houses.

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 $2.5M to $2.0M (−21%).
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: 2017 6% · 2018 6% · 2019 13% · 2020 20% · 2021 15% · 2022 3% · 2023 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
53% of VETERANS SUPPORT FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (72% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 3 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $9k → $87.
3 of 10 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 68% 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
VETERANS SUPPORT FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 58% of grant income and the top three 98%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
68% 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 VETERANS SUPPORT FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 88% · 2018 87% · 2019 100% · 2020 99% · 2021 87% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — growing more concentrated.
“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
11% of VETERANS SUPPORT FOUNDATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 20% 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
68% of VETERANS SUPPORT FOUNDATION'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 $29k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Michigan, across 6 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $61k 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.
