Read this first · the figures below need context
90% of Philanthropy in Action’s FY2022 grant dollars went to Innovia Foundation, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2022 names 1 organization directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2018, the last year Philanthropy in Action named its own grantees at scale: 5 organizations, $203k. It is dated, not current.
