A cause breakdown isn’t shown here: 100% of WAH YAN SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION OF CALIFORNIA’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.

1 country, 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.
0 grantees tracked through their own filings, 2023–2024.
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 2023–2024, not grant rows in a single year — so this will not match the grant count on the cover. 0 of the 6 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.

How do I get to Wah Yan Scholarship Foundation of California?
Find your warmest path to Wah Yan Scholarship Foundation of California 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.
