Read this first · the figures below need context
54% of Ivey Family Foundation’s FY2025 grant dollars went to Spartanburg County 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 FY2023, the last year Ivey Family Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 5 organizations, $50k. It is dated, not current.
