100% of Kevin C Tang Foundation’s FY2020 grant dollars went to National Philanthropic Trust, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2020 names 0 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2018, the last year Kevin C Tang Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 12 organizations, $5M. It is dated, not current.
