Read this first · the figures below need context
90% of Darby Family Foundation Inc’s FY2025 grant dollars went to Schwab Charitable Fund, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2025 names 5 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2021, the last year Darby Family Foundation Inc named its own grantees at scale: 5 organizations, $52k. It is dated, not current.
