Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 30 funders to 49 funders, grant income rose $341k → $3.4M.
1 of 128 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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: $281k from 9 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money KENNEDY KRIEGER INSTITUTE INC raised.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
66% 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 KENNEDY KRIEGER INSTITUTE INC.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $421k 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.
