Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations
Its FY2024 filing reports that it funds preselected organizations and did not take unsolicited requests; check the foundation's own site before ruling it out.
What you funded, over time
By grantee IRS cause code (NTEE).
A cause breakdown isn’t shown here: 100% of SOCIETY FOR HISTORIANS OF AMERICAN FOREIGN RELATIONS’s grantee dollars fall outside its nine largest cause areas, whether because the recipient carries no IRS cause code or because its cause sits in the long tail. A chart would be mostly one residual band and misrepresent the portfolio.

Do your dollars go where the need is?
Where your grant dollars land — across the US and around the world.
Your US giving — 86% of grant dollars ($414k). The 14% that went abroad ($68k) is mapped below.
Which US states your grants reach
Beyond the US — 14% of all-years giving ($68k)
8 countries, by the recipient’s country on the filing.
International giving is mapped by the recipient’s country from the same 990 filings; comparable need data isn’t available at that grain.
Who you back again
Which organizations you funded more than once, and which you funded a single time. Each grantee is matched to its own filings.
11 repeat relationships — 3 still active in FY2024, 8 since wound down; 25 grantees were first funded in FY2024 (too recent to call).

New vs renewed · share of each year
In FY2024, 19% of grant dollars renewed an existing relationship; $76k went to new ones.
First-time = a grantee’s first year in your filing window; renewed = funded in an earlier year too. As a portfolio matures the renewed share naturally climbs — once funded, an org stays “renewable” — so the signal is the years that buck it (a new-grantee intake wave). The earliest year is left-censored: relationships that predate the data read as “new.” Theme is the grantee’s IRS cause.

Repeat = funded in two or more distinct years; growth and survival are read from each grantee’s own subsequent IRS filings.
0 grantees tracked through their own filings, 2019–2024.
Each one resolved to its own IRS returns and tracked year by year — your grant beside their revenue from every source. Association, dated; never a causal claim.
Counted here: distinct organizations you funded across 2019–2024, not grant rows in a single year — so this will not match the grant count on the cover. 0 of the 144 grantees resolved in that span have returns of their own we could reconcile; the rest are funded organizations whose filings we could not track year by year.
