Read this first · the figures below need context
95% of Wyoming Valley Health & Education Foundation’s FY2022 grant dollars went to The Luzerne Foundation, not to grantees.
Its money now reaches organizations through that sponsor, which does not report who recommended each grant. FY2022 names 3 organizations directly, so a portfolio cannot be read from it. Everything below is therefore FY2018, the last year Wyoming Valley Health & Education Foundation named its own grantees at scale: 14 organizations, $287k. It is dated, not current.
