HSBF Financial Performance 2021

Overview

This bar chart illustrates our financial performance last year.

Total Donations we received during the year, $21, 041. These donations flowed in from various sources, illustrated in the charts below.


36% of our donations went right back out as Grants we donated to our beneficiaries, and Projects that directly impact our mission during the year. A total of $7,000 Cash was donated to various organizations, also detailed below, and $618 supporting our Native Bee Habitat installations and maintenance around the Truckee Meadows. 


As a startup, and being in our 2nd year of existence, we Retained Assets of $7,115, continuing to build a solid financial base, for financial stability and a platform from which to launch future projects. As of January 1, 2022, we have Total Assetsof $15,707 in cash and inventory and no debt.


Of course, running a business means spending money on things like license fees, insurance, advertising, and just the expenses of running a business. We hate ‘em, try to keep them down, and we wound up with $5,726 in Administrative Expenses, 27% of our budget.

We are a global force!

  

We received 7% of our donations from International sources.


In recognition of this fact, our board allocated a portion of our grant money to organizations outside of the US. In 2021, we donated $500 to Bees for Development, which was matched 1:1 by a nonprofit in the UK.

Where in the world?

Last year, we received donations from these places.  There are bee lovers all over the world!
