Read this first · the figures below need context
98% of Bengualid Foundation Inc’s FY2025 grant dollars went to Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2025 names 1 organization directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2018, the last year Bengualid Foundation Inc named its own grantees at scale: 17 organizations, $213k. It is dated, not current.
