Program
Helping kids shinethe mjya foundation helps children from low-income families shine. We bought them toys and other prizes for the holidays and gave gift cards for them to purchase their own presents. The foundation also gave food cards from the local supermarkets out to many of the children to enable them to buy their own snacks, and even arranged birthday parties for many of the children. When the holidays approached, we partnered with the leon mayer fund to ensure that many children would receive presents and treats. The kids that were doing well in school were frequently treated to meals with their friends, and the weaker students received tutoring help. When the summer arrived, we helped many children go to sleepaway camps and day camps and helped out with the expenses of clothing and sports equipment. All in all, we helped over 350 children in the five towns and far rockaway and gave them their chance to shine.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
81% 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 MJYA FOUNDATION INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 76% · 2019 60% · 2020 62% · 2021 63% · 2022 100% — growing more concentrated.
“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.

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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $137k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
