01What it does

What Onepulse Foundation Inc does

Mission

Our mission: to create and support a memorial that opens hearts, a museum that opens minds, educational programs that open eyes and legacy scholarships that open doors. Our vision: establishing a sanctuary of healing and a beacon of hope by memorializing the lives taken, the lives saved, and the lives affected by the pulse nightclub tragedy of june 12, 2016 - ensuring pulse's legacy of love lives on forever.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Programs

On its FY2023 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.

  1. National pulse memorial & museum: initially, the national pulse memorial was intended on being a place of sanctuary and commemoration. A safe, resting place for memories of the 49 angels, and for pulse and what it meant. The pulse museum will be a site of potential and transformation. Here public grief has a place to be transformed into personal meaning, and to inspire a society that warmly embraces and fiercely defends the full spectrum of our shared humanity. The orlando health survivors walk will be a pilgrimage of empathy and compassion. It offers moments of comfort, respite and human connection. During 2022 and 2023, the onepulse foundation board of trustees revisited the organization's original designs, evaluating the feasibility and costs of the project in a post-pandemic climate (I.e., escalated costs of construction, scarcity of materials, and a disruption to the global supply chain affecting capital projects worldwide). As a result, the trustees have determined a new re-scaled version of the original plan to include, among other things, a museum space as well as a multi-purpose gathering place within the warehouse property located at 438 w kaley street in downtown…

  2. 49 legacy scholarship program: in april 2023, the fifth class of 49 legacy scholarship recipients was announced and awarded $313,725 in scholarships for use during the 2023-2024 academic year. Working with the families and loved ones of those killed, onepulse foundation established the scholarships based on the respective victims' interests, careers or aspirations. As an extension of their impact on our world, the scholarships will inspire and empower students who share similar dreams, ambitions and goals. Preference was given to applicants who are immediate family members of the 49 victims, as well as survivors of the tragedy. Five family members and six survivors were awarded scholarships. The legacy scholarships are funded in part by the generosity of major donors, including: alix partners, the brumback family, city furniture, earl and bettie fields automotive group foundation, gucci, loreal usa, orlando health, outfront media, parable foundation, pvh foundation, wells fargo, and wendy trammel. Educational partners include advent health university, seminole state college, and valencia college. As of 12-31-2023 all scholarships were paid and no more will be given.

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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 19 funders, grant income rose $50k → $303k.

12 of 53 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 18% 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 ONEPULSE FOUNDATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 53 funders by total. 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

ONEPULSE FOUNDATION INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 21% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left

70% 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 ONEPULSE FOUNDATION INC.

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

How long its funders stay

42% of ONEPULSE FOUNDATION INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 45% 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. $877k arriving through sponsors registered in 11 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.
