From the IRS filings of LA RAZA HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF SANTA CLARA VALLEY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.

LA RAZA HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF SANTA CLARA VALLEY has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 24% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left

100% 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 LA RAZA HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF SANTA CLARA VALLEY.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $39k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
