  3. In response to the covid19 pandemic and its impact on immigrant families, the rian immigrant center and other partner organizations came together to form the massachusetts immigrant collaborative (mic) (formerly the boston immigrant covid19 collaborative (bicc)). The rian immigrant center is the fiscal sponsor of the mic. Immigrants are the backbone of support for the city of boston and its surrounding communities. Many immigrants were struck by losing their jobs and having little to no access to benefits or healthcare. The focus of mic's partner organizations immediately shifted to meet the needs of its diverse communities. The purpose of the collaboration is to address immigrant families' most urgent needs by providing direct financial relief and other resources. Joining forces has allowed mic to serve more than 59,000 individuals across massachusetts since april 13, 2020.

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 14 funders to 31 funders, grant income rose $403k → $3.3M.

20 of 80 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 30% 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 RIAN IMMIGRANT CENTER INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 80 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.

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 RIAN IMMIGRANT CENTER INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5.6M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
