03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 9 funders to 13 funders, grant income rose $225k → $312k.

9 of 40 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.

Left out of every figure on this page: $1.0M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Open Door Ministries of High Point Foundation Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money OPEN DOOR MINISTRIES OF HIGH POINT INC raised.

From the IRS filings of OPEN DOOR MINISTRIES OF HIGH POINT INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 40 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.

43% 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 OPEN DOOR MINISTRIES OF HIGH POINT INC.
