What Grantmakers in Aging Inc does
Mission
Gia is a membership association of funders mobilizing money and ideas to strengthen policies, programs, and resources for all of us as we age.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
We ended 2024 with 133 members, 11 of which were new to gia. 91% of member organizations participated in at least one program. Over 1/3 of 850 individuals associated with member organizations participated in at least one program. We hosted 13 member meetups attended by 360 people and 24 funders community meetings attended by 361 people. A 2024 survey found that 100% of respondents reported having "a better understanding of how and where resources are being deployed," as a result of participation. The 2024 conference was attended by 258 people, an increase over 2023, including 83 first-time attendees. 95% of survey respondents said the conference was valuable to their work and professional development. We published 2 funders guides and 9 issues of our newsletter aging matters.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $1.7M to $2.4M (+41%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 7%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
75% of GRANTMAKERS IN AGING INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (81% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

How long its funders stay
51% of GRANTMAKERS IN AGING INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 61% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year.

Where its funders are
GRANTMAKERS IN AGING INC draws 81% of its grant income from funders outside New York, across 24 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $132k 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. 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.
