Read this first · the figures below need context
100% of Alliance for Open Society Int'L Inc’s FY2024 grant dollars went to New Venture Fund, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2024 names 0 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2021, the last year Alliance for Open Society Int'L Inc named its own grantees at scale: 53 organizations, $11M. It is dated, not current.

Does the money reach high-need areas?
Each grant placed by the hardship in its grantee’s ZIP, against the area’s typical level.
Its human-services grants (FY20–23, $5.7M) land where the poverty rate runs at 17%, against an area that typically sits at 9%. 84% of those dollars go to grantees based in above-average-need neighborhoods. Most of its grants land in higher-need ZIPs.

Where the work is directed
The same grants placed two ways: where each recipient sits, and where its stated purpose sends the money.
About 32% of Alliance for Open Society Int'L Inc’s grant dollars are earmarked for a different county than the recipient’s own address. By recipient address, 5% of the giving stays in NY; by stated purpose, 1%.
How this is measured
Who it funds again
Organizations funded in more than one year, against those funded once.
Grantees it renews have grown median revenue +50% since the first grant, against +42% for those funded once.
28 repeat relationships: 28 still active in FY2021, 0 since wound down; 62 grantees were first funded in FY2021 (too recent to call). Read against FY2021, the last year this funder named its own grantees directly; its giving has since run through a sponsor, which reports no donor behind each grant.

Co-funders
Grantmakers whose grantees overlap with this funder’s far more than size alone predicts. Closer means stronger alignment; arcs show where they also fund each other. Here they form a tightly interlocked group: most of these funders back each other's grantees too.
