Read this first · the figures below need context
100% of Kodimer-Lutz Foundation’s FY2020 grant dollars went to Morgan Stanley Global Impact Funding Trust Inc, 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 FY2019, the last year Kodimer-Lutz Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 6 organizations, $5k. It is dated, not current.
