Pebbles is a wholly-owned for-profit subsidiary of Housing Forward which is considered to be a disregarded entity for tax purposes, and its activity is included in Housing Forwards federal information return.For the years ended December 31, 2024, Housing Forward had no material unrelated business income, including pass-through income from Pebbles. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income tax. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing Housing Forwards tax returns and recognition of a tax liability (or asset) if Housing Forward has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by Housing Forward, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2024 there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure. false TX STATE OF THE HOMELESS ADDRESS 31253 24032 7221 7221 25231 506 31253 24032 7221 7221 25231 506 32958 -25737 true AIDS SERVICES OF DALLAS 201 S TYLER ST DALLAS TX 75208 752144518 501(C)(3) 17527 0 GENERAL SUPPORT AUSTIN STREET CENTER 1717 JEFFRIES ST DALLAS TX 75226 751881365 501(C)(3) 851728 0 GENERAL SUPPORT CATHOLIC CHARITIES OF DALLAS 1421 W MOCKINGBIRD LN DALLAS TX 75247 752745221 501(C)(3) 1417344 0 GENERAL SUPPORT CITY SQUARE 1610 S MALCOLM X BLVD DALLAS TX 75226 752332948 501(C)(3) 688587 0 GENERAL SUPPORT DALLAS COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH 1345 RIVERBEND DR 200 DALLAS TX 75247 751285603 GOVT. 389877 0 GENERAL SUPPORT ELEVATE NORTH TEXAS 17000 DALLAS PKWY 209 DALLAS TX 75248 853059464 501(C)(3) 9442 0 GENERAL SUPPORT FAITH FORMULE HUMAN SERVICES 616 W KIEST BLVD DALLAS TX 75224 752226280 501(C)(3) 85893 0 GENERAL SUPPORT FAMILY GATEWAY 711 SOUTH ST PAUL STREET DALLAS TX 75201 752105579 501(C)(3) 174230 0 GENERAL SUPPORT HARMONY COMMUNIITY DEVELOPMEN 6969 PASTOR BAILEY DR 110 DALLAS TX 75237 261245799 501(C)(3) 228261 0 GENERAL SUPPORT HOPE RESTORED MISSIONS LLC 1947 K AVE STE B100 PLANO TX 75074 842252859 501(C)(3) 179609 0 GENERAL SUPPORT METRO RELIEF INC 5201 S COLONY BLVD 545 THE COLONY TX 75056 452389719 501(C)(3) 404590 0 GENERAL SUPPORT SALVATION ARMY OF NORTH TEXAS PO BOX 36006 DALLAS TX 75235 750808838 501(C)(3) 95545 0 GENERAL SUPPORT SAMARITAN INN 1725 N MCDONALD ST MCKINNEY TX 75071 751984285 501(C)(3) 65125 0 GENERAL SUPPORT SHARED HOUSING CENTER 4611 EASTSIDE AVE DALLAS TX 75226 752137522 501(C)(3) 114029 0 GENERAL SUPPORT THE BRIDGE HOMELESS RECOVERY 1818 CORSICANA ST dallas TX 75201 453452817 501(C)(3) 796193 0 general support THE STEWPOT 1835 YOUNG ST DALLAS TX 75201 750871727 501(C)(3) 520698 0 general support TRANSITION RESOURCE ACTION 3108 LIVE OAK ST DALLAS TX 75204 921587776 501(C)(3) 22343 0 GENERAL SUPPORT UNDER 1 ROOF 5787 S HAMPTON RD 390 DALLAS TX 75232 800765001 501(C)(3) 899728 0 general support 18 0 FLEX FUND/ASSISTANCE 2185 2842415 DV RRH 60 537004 DIVERSION 614 1645978 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used THE FLEXIBLE ASSISTANCE FUND (Flex Fund) ADDRESSES MINOR BUT IMPACTFUL NEEDS, THAT IF UNADDRESSED, IMPEDE CLIENTS FROM MAKING PROGRESS IN ENDING THEIR HOMELESSNESS.
