What Portland State University Alumni Association does
Mission
To champion a life-long relationship between portland state university and its alumni.
As stated on its FY2022 Form 990.
Program
On its FY2021 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.
Ceased operations, merged with psuf.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).
Portland State University Alumni Association includes our community of over 200,000 psu graduates and 27,000 students. The scope and purpose of our work extends world-wide to alumni and honorary alumni, current and former students, current and former parents, and friends of the university. The purpose of the alumni association is to create and enhance opportunities for alumni engagement in support of portland state university and promote the benefits of the reciprocal relationship between alumni, students, families and friends of the university. We do this collaboratively with the psu foundation, and in partnership with the president's office, government relations and university communications, student affairs and the schools and colleges to engender a culture of philanthropy and engagement at portland state university.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $2.3M to $0 (−100%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income rose $20 → $12k.
2 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 PORTLAND STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION’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
PORTLAND STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 99% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 PORTLAND STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“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.
Where its funders are
100% of PORTLAND STATE UNIVERSITY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION'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. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $12k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 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.
