8 of 47 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 9% 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: $32k from one payer (the same organization on both sides, largest Korean Community Services of Metropolitan New York Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money KOREAN COMMUNITY SERVICES OF METROPOLITAN NEW YORK INC raised.

96% 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 KOREAN COMMUNITY SERVICES OF METROPOLITAN NEW YORK INC.
