Hosts funds for others

HEBREW ACADEMY OF CLEVELAND administers funds on behalf of other donors. The grants recorded as coming in are contributions into those funds, so they count custody rather than support for a programHEBREW ACADEMY OF CLEVELAND runs itself. This page therefore states the flows and does not draw the comparisons it would draw for an operating charity: concentration, funder retention, grant dependency and the peer field are all left out, because each of them would read a vehicle as if it were a program.

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.

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.

02Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 20 funders to 34 funders, grant income rose $325k → $1.4M.

12 of 90 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 44% 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: $44M from 15 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Jewish Federation of Cleveland); $454k from one payer (the same organization on both sides, largest Hebrew Academy of Cleveland). These are real filings, and they are not money HEBREW ACADEMY OF CLEVELAND raised.

From the IRS filings of HEBREW ACADEMY OF CLEVELAND’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 90 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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.7M arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
