Read this first · the figures below need context
100% of The Usdin-Weil Foundation’s FY2023 grant dollars went to The Greater New Orleans Foundation, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2023 names 9 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2022, the last year The Usdin-Weil Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 38 organizations, $69k. It is dated, not current.
