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

2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 11 funders to 10 funders, grant income rose $77k → $230k.

5 of 24 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 20% 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: $195k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Fannie Battle Day Home Endowment Fund Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money FANNIE BATTLE DAY HOME FOR CHILDREN INC raised.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $345k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
