What Well Community does
Mission
The Well Community is a community of people bringing hope and stability to adults in Dallas with severe and persistent mental illness by building community, meeting vital needs, and empowering lives. The Well focuses on core issues related to mental illness (despair, isolation, poverty) by offering a restorative environment, healthy relationships and case management.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
The Community Life Center (CLC) is a place where community is fostered by giving people living with mental illnesses an opportunity to reach their full potential. It is a safe and caring community where adults with mental illnesses experience new levels of hope and stability by socializing with one another (building community), worshiping together (sharing faith), and working alongside others (empowerment). Community Members (clients) are able to gain access to other services and support needed for their recovery. In addition, Community Members are able to re/develop friendships and family relationships. Developing healthy relationships is an essential part of the recovery process. Staff assists with case management, crisis intervention, and securing vital resources. A nutritious meal is served every program day.

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 $112k to $216k (+92%).
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 0% · 2018 0% · 2019 0% · 2020 8% · 2021 13% · 2022 3% · 2023 2% · 2024 2% · 2025 13%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
91% of WELL COMMUNITY’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 3 funders to 19 funders, grant income rose $24k → $207k.
7 of 35 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 51% 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 WELL COMMUNITY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 35 funders by total. 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
WELL COMMUNITY has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 37% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
63% 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 WELL COMMUNITY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 42% · 2018 53% · 2019 53% · 2020 40% · 2021 37% · 2022 33% · 2023 31% — diversifying over time.
“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
60% of WELL COMMUNITY's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 71% 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
51% of WELL COMMUNITY'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 $611k that is directly attributable, 81% of it comes from Texas funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $631k 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.
Against its field
WELL COMMUNITY runs a healthier operating margin than half of the 7,850 religion nonprofits its size.
