Health Care: World Hope's impactful programs are dedicated to reducing maternal and child mortality, strengthening and ensuring inclusion for children living with disabilities, and providing medical supplies to hospitals in West Africa and the Caribbean. Our financial and Gifts-In-Kind resources have made a significant impact, reaching over 2,175,000 individuals. Haiti's La Ganave Hospital, serving an island of 120,000 people, received facility upgrades, pharmaceuticals, construction of a blood bank facility and program, and training. 1,400 Children with Disabilities accessed physiotherapy, education, and family support interventions in Liberia and Sierra Leone. In Sierra Leone, WHI is an implementing partner of child health and mortality prevention surveillance (CHAMPS), a significant global research priority of the Gates Foundation and Emory University. Critical drugs and medical equipment worth $20.4 million were secured for 183 hospitals and other health partners in West Africa and Haiti. World Hope continued to pilot an innovative, low-cost cervical cancer screening and provided treatment to 5,200 women in Sierra Leone.

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 2020 to 2021, from $3.0M to $5.5M (+80%).
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 4% · 2018 3% · 2020 4% · 2021 2% · 2022 1% · 2023 3% · 2024 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of World Hope International Inc’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (96% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 18 funders to 24 funders, grant income rose $1.0M → $1.8M.
17 of 72 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 32% 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 World Hope International Inc’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 72 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
World Hope International Inc has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 17% of grant income, and it takes 5 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
43% 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 World Hope International Inc.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 19% · 2018 19% · 2019 42% · 2020 25% · 2021 31% · 2022 18% · 2023 29% — 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
56% of World Hope International Inc's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 54% 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
World Hope International Inc draws 98% of its grant income from funders outside Virginia, across 23 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5.5M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
