Read this first · the figures below need context
95% of TSC Foundation Inc’s FY2018 grant dollars went to Foundation For The Carolinas, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2018 names 4 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2017, the last year TSC Foundation Inc named its own grantees at scale: 6 organizations, $9k. It is dated, not current.

Co-funders
Grantmakers whose grantees overlap with this funder’s far more than size alone predicts. Closer means stronger alignment; arcs show where they also fund each other. Here they form a tightly interlocked group: most of these funders back each other's grantees too.

How do I get to TSC Foundation Inc?
Find your warmest path to TSC Foundation Inc through trustees and officers whose names appear on both boards. Search for your organization and Plinth traces the shortest route it can evidence.
Each link is a name appearing on two organizations’ public IRS 990 filings, matched on that name and, where the filings support it, on location. A same-state match has geographic support, which is a second matching feature rather than confirmation that the two are one person; a cross-state one is the likeliest to be two people who share a name. Every hop shows its tier, low-confidence and distant paths are held back rather than guessed, and it is worth confirming the person before you use the introduction.
