Read this first · the figures below need context
99% of Mira W Miskin Foundation’s FY2021 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. FY2021 names 1 organization directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2020, the last year Mira W Miskin Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 13 organizations, $77k. It is dated, not current.
