01What it does

What Numbersusa Education & Research Foundation does

Mission

Numbersusa Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of u.s. Immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies, and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of americans to enjoy a stabilizing u.s. Population and high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

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 8 funders, grant income rose $175k → $1.3M.

10 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 85% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $913k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Numbersusa Support Organization). These are real filings, and they are not money NUMBERSUSA EDUCATION & RESEARCH FOUNDATION raised.

From the IRS filings of NUMBERSUSA EDUCATION & RESEARCH FOUNDATION’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

NUMBERSUSA EDUCATION & RESEARCH FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 53% of grant income and the top three 82%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

94% 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 NUMBERSUSA EDUCATION & RESEARCH FOUNDATION.

“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

60% of NUMBERSUSA EDUCATION & RESEARCH FOUNDATION'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.

Where its funders are

85% of NUMBERSUSA EDUCATION & RESEARCH FOUNDATION'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. Of the $1.3M that is directly attributable, 59% of it comes from Virginia funders.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
