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 broadened from 22 funders to 43 funders, grant income rose $2.2M → $9.2M.

15 of 94 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 5% 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: $162M from 12 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money JEWISH COMMUNITY SERVICES OF SOUTH FLORIDA INC raised.

From the IRS filings of JEWISH COMMUNITY SERVICES OF SOUTH FLORIDA INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 94 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.

How concentrated its funding is

JEWISH COMMUNITY SERVICES OF SOUTH FLORIDA INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 38% of grant income and the top three 72%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

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 JEWISH COMMUNITY SERVICES OF SOUTH FLORIDA INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.8M arriving through sponsors registered in 12 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.
