Records in this library attributed to this funder.
Sum of the awards we hold for this funder. A floor on its giving, not a filing total.
The midpoint of the awards we hold, not a cap and not a filing median.
- Data year
- 2025
The most recent fiscal year among the awards we hold, as the source wrote it.
Derived from awards
Computed from the 26 recipients we hold an award to. This is where money we can see went, which is not the same as a statement of what this funder sets out to fund — and the gap between the two is widest where our coverage is thinnest.
Where the recipients are
The recipient's own location, not where the work happens. A national body headquartered in Washington spends money everywhere.
- CA $292,000
- NY $100,000
- DC $76,000
- VA $50,000
- IL $25,000
- FL $25,000
- TX $20,000
- DE $20,000
- AZ $20,000
Award sizes
Fixed bands rather than this funder's own quantiles, so two funders can be compared. A per-funder split would make every distribution look the same shape.
- 100k-500k 1
- 25k-100k 8
- under-25k 17
By fiscal year
A trend across the years we import, which is a bounded window. A year with no bar is a year outside it, not a year with no funding.
- FY2025 $628,000 (26)
Giving history, from the awards we hold
One row per fiscal year, as the source labelled it. These are the awards we have connected — a floor on what this funder gave in each year, never the whole of it.
Not enough filings to draw a trend: 1 year stated. Sum of the awards we have connected for this funder, by the fiscal year each award states. A floor on giving, never a filing total.

The tax year the three figures below describe.
The filing's own totrevenue for that period.
Everything the organisation spent, not what it granted.
What the organisation held when that period closed.
One filing, one period. A figure the newest return left blank reads Not stated rather than being taken from an older return, because two figures that never appeared on the same return do not describe the same organisation at the same moment.

The counts and the median above stay free, because they are the evidence for everything else. Studio adds the breakdowns: which states the awards went to, what kind of organisation received them, and how the amounts are distributed.
