As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
The saint catherine foundation in london, united kingdom, a charitable foundation whose purposes are similar to that of the american associates of the st. Catherine foundation: through their intercession with the monastery and the egyptian government, the monastery agreed to participate at the african & byzantium exhibition at the metropolitan museum of art in new york city by loaning historic icons and rare illuminated manuscripts from the monastery of saint catherine in sinai, egypt for this exhibition. Through these efforts, the museum agreed to our request to host a fundraising reception at the museum to coincide with this exhibition. The board decided to make a grant to the saint catherine foundation equal to half to the net proceeds of this fundraiser held in early february of 2024 in recognition of their efforts.

Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $246k to $319k (+30%).

56% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund AMER ASSOC OF ST CATHERINE FND INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2019 91% · 2022 100% — broadly stable.

Where its funders are

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $75k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
