Read this first · the figures below need context
97% of The Charitable Oak Foundation’s FY2021 grant dollars went to Orange County Community Foundation, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2021 names 2 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2018, the last year The Charitable Oak Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 5 organizations, $15k. It is dated, not current.
