What Vienna Jammers Percussion Ensemble Inc does
Mission
The Vienna Jammers' mission is to educate youth through unique percussion programs, provide a dynamic and diverse experience in the performing arts, nurture the creativity of each child, and enrich the lives within the community. We have been able to resume our planning in our strategic plan after getting back to full staff from last season.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
EDUCATION: Jammers Camps & Ensemble Rehearsals: The Jammers provided two weeks of instructional summer experience camps open to any student in the surrounding geographic area of Vienna. The Jammers also held weekly rehearsals for six permanent percussion ensembles: Jammers Black, Red, Green, White, Steel, and Advanced Steel. Jammers held monthly rehearsals for an adult group - Jammers Gold. In addition, Jammers held classes for the beginning tech group twice a month and the advanced tech group once a month.

$20,879 spent12% of program spendingTHE BIG JAM: Fourth season at Capital One Hall. This performance was the result of applying for and being accepted as one of the 30 non-profit performing arts groups in Fairfax County to be able to perform at this prestigious theater in the Tysons area. This 1500 seat auditorium is outfitted for professional touring groups and partnered with ArtsFairfax to allow a select number of non-profits to perform at a discounted rate. In addition to performing The Big Jam at Capital One Hall, the Jammers also featured Etienne Charles as the guest artist for the Big Jam. Etienne is a world renowned trumpeter and steel pan artist from Trinidad who is currently a professor of jazz studies at the University of Miami. The performance was successful, with over 850 tickets sold, and Jammers Tech/Advanced Tech students were able to work alongside professional counterparts.

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 2024 to 2025, from $296k to $403k (+36%).
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: 2022 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
15% of Vienna Jammers Percussion Ensemble Inc’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (64% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $8k → $8k.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
98% 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 Vienna Jammers Percussion Ensemble Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 98% · 2021 98% · 2022 97% · 2023 97% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $989 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
