03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 180 funders to 299 funders, grant income rose $21M → $64M.

48 of 743 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 13% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $165M from 46 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest California Health Foundation and Trust). These are real filings, and they are not money CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER raised.

From the IRS filings of CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 743 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 9% of grant income, and it takes 14 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 14 funders to its left

34% 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 CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $59M arriving through sponsors registered in 20 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.
