Read this first · the figures below need context
70% of Dallas Theological Seminary’s FY2025 grant dollars went to Dallas Seminary Foundation, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2025 names 3 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2024, the last year Dallas Theological Seminary named its own grantees at scale: 7 organizations, $94k. It is dated, not current.
