Read this first · the figures below need context
94% of Mdm Foundation’s FY2025 grant dollars went to Greater Grand Island Community Foundation, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2025 names 2 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2022, the last year Mdm Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 6 organizations, $29k. It is dated, not current.
