Christensen Fund: $6.7M Revenue, $22.7M Expenses

Christensen Fund pulls a D on the efficiency rubric. The composite of 42/100 reflects below-median performance on the bundle of factors — typically driven by thin operating reserves, volatile revenue, or outsized officer compensation relative to organizational size.

With $6.7M in 2023 revenue, Christensen Fund is in the small-nonprofit bracket — typical of single-program organizations or regional chapters of larger national groups. On the financial-health factor, Christensen Fund runs thin — assets relative to annual spending fall below the cushion nonprofit-finance experts typically recommend.

Revenue has declined meaningfully over the five-year filing window — a pattern that warrants attention to underlying funding sustainability. Christensen Fund's 2023 revenue is materially below its earlier filings. Current-officer compensation is not separately reported in the filing — typical for nonprofits where leadership is paid through a related entity (parent system, university, or foundation) rather than the filing organization itself, or for small organizations whose chief is a volunteer or board member. Christensen Fund works in Environment & Animals — environmental, conservation, animal-welfare, and natural-resources programs. The sector spans large international conservation groups and small local land trusts; the financial profile varies accordingly.
