The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2019 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 7 funders, grant income rose $40k → $704k.

12 of 20 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 78% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of CUNY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND HEALTH POLICY FOUNDATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 19 of 20 funders by total. Association, not causation.

CUNY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND HEALTH POLICY FOUNDATION INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 23% of grant income, and it takes 4 funders to reach half.

89% 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 CUNY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH AND HEALTH POLICY FOUNDATION INC.
