What YMCA Camp Tecumseh Inc does
Mission
Camp tecumseh ymca is a public charitable non-profit organization that serves people of all ages, abilities, ethnicities, religions, genders, and socio-economic statuses. Our mission is to put christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. Focused on preparing our campers and guests to make a positive difference in their own communities, our year-round programs teach the values of friendship, respect, trust, joy, initiative, and faith to 36,000 people each year in an inclusive, welcoming environment open to all. Through an array of programs designed to build relationships, connect with nature, and emphasize our core values, camp tecumseh helps our campers and guests grow. Every year through our campership program we help cover the cost of camp fees for children and adults from all backgrounds who wouldn't be able to afford a camp experience otherwise.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Resident summer camp is a perfect program to accomplish the mission elements of the organization. More than 4,000 camper weeks of summer camp are provided each summer. Fee assistance is provided from contributions so children from lower income families can take part. In addition, volunteer mentors were recruited to help ensure that these children would have transportation to and from camp, have the clothing and gear needed, and have assistance in filling out all of the required forms.

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 $64M to $72M (+13%).
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: 2021 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
30% of YMCA CAMP TECUMSEH INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (21% for the typical peer).

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders 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 YMCA CAMP TECUMSEH INC.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.6M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
