Read this first · the figures below need context
74% of The Turk Family Foundation’s FY2018 grant dollars went to Schwab Charitable Fund, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2018 names 36 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2017, the last year The Turk Family Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 24 organizations, $305k. It is dated, not current.
