From the IRS filings of LAKE HIGHLAND PREPARATORY SCHOOL INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 43 funders by total. Association, not causation.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
90% 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 LAKE HIGHLAND PREPARATORY SCHOOL INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 23% · 2018 25% · 2019 31% · 2020 51% · 2021 39% · 2022 28% · 2023 21% — diversifying over time.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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. 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.
