Programs

  1. Civic engagement program--machik continued to grow public education to a broad audience of tibetans, americans and global citizens about the vital importance of engagement for tibet through a number of innovative initiatives such as machik weekend, and machik annual commencement. The 18th annual machik weekend was well-attended with approximately 270 people attending. The participants learned more about social innovation and engagement for tibet, and building greater understanding among participants. The machik annual commencement once again convened tibetans and supporters from around the world for a conversation about the value and impact of education.

  3. Social innovation program--machik first innovated the effort to specifically identify and support social innovators in tibet. We continued to create platforms for tibetan innovators globally to connect to global audiences for their stories and visions which in turn generate greater understanding of tibetan lives and socio-cultural realities today. In 2024, tibetan innovators spoke at the 18th annual machik weekend. The machik film screening program continued to engage audiences in many cities about tibetan language resilience despite challenges and shared key viewpoints through stories told through tibetan standpoints.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 6 funders, grant income fell $99k → $26k.

7 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 45% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of MACHIK CORP’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. 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.

How concentrated its funding is

MACHIK CORP leans on a few funders — its largest provides 39% of grant income and the top three 69%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

52% 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 MACHIK CORP.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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.

How long its funders stay

27% of MACHIK CORP's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 59% give in more than one year at all.

first grant+1y+2y+3y+4y+5y+6y

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $205k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
