0 grantees tracked through their own filings, 2024–2025.
Each one resolved to its own IRS 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 2024–2025, not grant rows in a single year — so this will not match the grant count on the cover. 0 of the 2 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.
