Mission

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. YWAM Nashville equips aspiring missionaries for service stateside and overseas through dormitory-style living; learning from visiting speakers, local pastors and staff missionaries; and by serving through ongoing local ministry. As part of their training and mentoring, students care for the homeless, evangelize respectfully and relationally, and do service projects in the community. This aspect of our program service is designed to challenge and prepare individuals of all ages for long-term Christian service with a Biblical worldview, potentially as future missionaries.

    71% of program spending
  2. Aspiring missionaries who complete our first program service phase (the Discipleship Training School) are eligible to go overseas for the second half of their training, the two-month complementary program service phase to their preceding three months of being equipped. In a foreign context, these individuals of all ages will serve in teams while applying what they've learned about sharing their faith in Jesus Christ respectfully, verbally, relationally, and as servants in their host communities.

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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

100% 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 YOUTH WITH A MISSION NASHVILLE INC.

“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.

Where its funders are

100% of YOUTH WITH A MISSION NASHVILLE INC'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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $38k 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.
