The map has a center of gravity: the average direction from the rest of the sector toward the organizations the foundation funds — the shape of its giving.

The grantmakers whose grantees overlap with yours far more than size alone predicts. Each orbits closer the stronger the alignment; the arcs between them show where they also fund each other. Here it reads as a tightly interlocked camp — most of these funders back each other's grantees too.
