What Project Dandelion Inc does
Mission
Connected Women Leaders is a cohort curated across geographies, generations, expertise and experience to convene forums on some of the world's most urgent threats.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Connected Women Leaders was engaged by The Rockefeller Foundation to provide the following services: Continue to develop a new series of programs and forums focused on strengthening women leaders and innovating new models for collaborative problem solving and scaling up social impact, specifically in the priority program areas of climate justice and democratizing power and energy, addressing inequities in global food ecosystems, and access to health services worldwide. Advance innovative work centered on women's empowerment and its link to gender equity, recognizing that climate, energy, food, and the health and well-being of women and girls are critically interconnected. Foster partnerships that allow for action by women, along with those that would move the SDG dial forward and create portfolio opportunities for the Rockefeller Foundation.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $189k to $228k (+21%).
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.
100% of Project Dandelion Inc’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (62% for the typical peer).

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
2 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 7% 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 Project Dandelion Inc’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
Project Dandelion Inc leans on a few funders — its largest provides 29% of grant income and the top three 64%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
42% 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 Project Dandelion Inc.
“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
Project Dandelion Inc draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Georgia, across 5 states in all.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $45k 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.
