01What it does

What Isadoranow Foundation does

Mission

The organization is dedicated to providing equitable fine arts education. Through our generative approach, students develop their own, unique voice within their art.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Program

  1. Fine arts classes and camps for chilldren - seaside arts center is dedicated to providing equitable fine arts education to children in the san diego community. Our approach helps students develop their own, unique voice within their art; refine their individual style; and enhance their confidence, compassion, and creativity. Through this method, students not only produce exceptional work, but because of their personal stake in the product, they are empowered to speak with conviction and confidence about this work. Our robust scholarship program ensures that these opportunities are afforded to any child who wants them, regardless of means and circumstance. On site, in carmel valley, san diego, we have classes in theater, dance, visual arts, and more. We also partner with organizations throughout the san diego community to provide this same high caliber arts education to children who would otherwise have little to no exposure to the arts.

Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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.

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.

1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 ISADORANOW FOUNDATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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.

Where its funders are

100% of ISADORANOW FOUNDATION's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
