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 MAA SHAKTI JAGRAN AND RAMAYAN SANSTHA INC.

Where its funders are
100% of MAA SHAKTI JAGRAN AND RAMAYAN SANSTHA INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
