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.

For reference, the grantee most central to the portfolio’s shape is Halifax Transition House Association and the most unlike its peers is The Dalhousie Medical Research Foundation.

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.
