Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

OUR MISSION: TO END THE CYCLE OF FAMILY HOMELESSNESS. OUR VISION: A COMMUNITY IN WHICH EVERY CHILD HAS A SAFE AND STABLE HOME.

  • IN 2024, WELLSPRING CONTINUED TO PROVIDE COST-EFFECTIVE, RESPONSIVE SERVICES THAT SUPPORT EMPLOYEE WELL-BEING AND PRODUCTIVITY THROUGH OUR EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (EAP). EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES HAD ACCESS TO COUNSELING, CHILD CARE RESOURCES, AND OTHER SUPPORTS THAT HELP THEM REMAIN BOTH EMPLOYED AND STABLY HOUSED. AT THE END OF 2024, WELLSPRING TRANSITIONED THE EAP PROGRAM TO ANOTHER ORGANIZATION TO ENSURE CONTINUITY OF SERVICES FOR THE EMPLOYEES AND COMPANIES IT SERVED.

    Expenses $3,512,161 · Grants $34 · Revenue $2,496,710

  • CHILDHOOD SERVICES: EARLY LEARNING CENTER (ELC) AND FAMILY STORE. WELLSPRING'S CHILDHOOD SERVICES PROVIDE EARLY EDUCATION AND ESSENTIAL RESOURCES TO SUPPORT CHILDREN AND FAMILIES EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IN 2024, THE ELC PROVIDED FREE, TRAUMA-INFORMED, HIGH-QUALITY CHILDCARE TO 52 CHILDREN AGES 1 TO 5. ELEVEN STUDENTS GRADUATED READY TO SUCCEED IN KINDERGARTEN AND BEYOND, WHILE FAMILIES COLLECTIVELY SAVED AN ESTIMATED $1.56 MILLION IN CHILDCARE COSTS THE EQUIVALENT OF 17 MONTHS OF RENT PER FAMILY. THE ELC ALSO EQUIPPED PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS WITH SUPPORT AND RESOURCES TO CONTINUE BUILDING A STRONGER FUTURE. DURING THE SAME YEAR, THE FAMILY STORE SUPPORTED MORE THAN 2,200 FAMILIES BY PROVIDING ESSENTIAL ITEMS INCLUDING CLOTHING, DIAPERS, HYGIENE PRODUCTS, AND HOUSEHOLD SUPPLIES. THESE RESOURCES HELPED FAMILIES STRETCH LIMITED BUDGETS AND DIRECT THEIR FINANCES TOWARD CRITICAL EXPENSES THAT KEEP THEM SAFELY AND STABLY HOUSED.

    Expenses $2,918,428 · Grants $1,362,082

  • WELLSPRING'S HOUSING SERVICES SPECIALIZE IN PREVENTING FAMILY HOMELESSNESS BEFORE IT OCCURS AND INTERVENING EARLY WHEN IT DOES. OUR HOUSING SPECIALISTS PROVIDE GUIDANCE AND SUPPORT TO HELP FAMILIES NAVIGATE THE COMPLEX WEB OF COMMUNITY RESOURCES TO STAY HOUSED, FIND TEMPORARY EMERGENCY SHELTER, OR SECURE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. IN 2024, WELLSPRING EXPANDED HOUSING SERVICES BY LAUNCHING A NEW PROGRAM DEDICATED TO SUPPORTING VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES, AND BY INTEGRATING ENHANCED RESIDENT CARE MODELS WITHIN THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING LANDSCAPE. OUR EMPLOYEE STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP) ALSO OFFICIALLY BEGAN SERVICE, EQUIPPING EMPLOYERS WITH TOOLS TO HELP THEIR EMPLOYEES NAVIGATE CRISES AND MAINTAIN OR REGAIN HOUSING STABILITY. IN 2024, WELLSPRING PROVIDED PREVENTION AND INTERVENTION SERVICES TO 389 FAMILIES, HELPING THEM REMAIN SAFELY HOUSED. THESE EFFORTS SAVED AN ESTIMATED $14.2 MILLION IN TAXPAYER COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH HOMELESSNESS AND REHOUSING. FOR THE FOURTH CONSECUTIVE YEAR, 100% OF FAMILIES IN OUR RAPID REHOUSING PROGRAM REMAINED SUCCESSFULLY HOUSED, WITH NO RETURNS TO HOMELESSNESS.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Taxable family

From Schedule R Parts I, III and IV: entities that legally are the filer, and taxable partnerships, corporations and trusts it is related to. These record ownership and control, not shared board members or money.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
