Do your dollars go where the need is?
Where your grant dollars land — at home and around the world.
Your giving at home — 72% of grant dollars (C$56k). The 28% that went abroad (C$22k) is mapped below.
Beyond home — 28% of all-years giving (C$22k)
0 countries, by the recipient’s country on the filing.
International giving is mapped by the recipient’s country from the same T3010 filings; comparable need data isn’t available at that grain.
Who you back again
Which organizations you funded more than once, and which you funded a single time. Each grantee is matched to its own filings.
5 repeat relationships — 4 still active in FY2024, 1 since wound down; 11 grantees were first funded in FY2024 (too recent to call).

New vs renewed · share of each year
In FY2024, 24% of grant dollars renewed an existing relationship; C$29k went to new ones.
First-time = a grantee’s first year in your filing window; renewed = funded in an earlier year too. As a portfolio matures the renewed share naturally climbs — once funded, an org stays “renewable” — so the signal is the years that buck it (a new-grantee intake wave). The earliest year is left-censored: relationships that predate the data read as “new.”

Repeat = funded in two or more distinct years; growth and survival are read from each grantee’s own subsequent CRA filings.
0 grantees tracked through their own filings, 2021–2024.
Each one resolved to its own CRA returns and tracked year by year — your grant beside their revenue from every source. Association, dated; never a causal claim.
Counted here: distinct organizations you funded across 2021–2024, not grant rows in a single year — so this will not match the grant count on the cover. 0 of the 25 grantees resolved in that span have returns of their own we could reconcile; the rest are funded organizations whose filings we could not track year by year.
