Read this first · the figures below need context
51% of McKinley Family Foundation’s FY2021 grant dollars went to The Board Of Trustees Of The Leland Stanford Junior University, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2021 names 3 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2018, the last year McKinley Family Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 12 organizations, $177k. It is dated, not current.
