Read this first · the figures below need context
76% of Henry Greenspan Foundation’s FY2024 grant dollars went to New Israel Fund, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2024 names 1 organization directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2020, the last year Henry Greenspan Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 10 organizations, $9k. It is dated, not current.
