What Scatter does
Mission
Scatter cultivates collectives that broker good in the world.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Our journey in this space has taught us that there are three distorted views people need to overcome in order to show up well in the world as a visible, compelling, and beautiful reflection of our creator: a diminished view of ourselves and our place in the story of god, a reduced view of the gospel, and a distorted view of our role in the world. Scatter is building new pathways for people to live out their role in gods plan, maximizing the totality of who they were created to be. Cultivating the ways of jesus: we are cultivating those longing to participate fully in the world. Our focus is on changing the narrative, building a biblical framework, providing training intensives, and fostering a collective. Brokering talent and resources for the common good: we are creating a process that connects talent and capital with felt needs in the world. This includes events, tools, and advancing to the forefront of technology to facilitate connections.

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
2 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 93% 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 SCATTER’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
SCATTER leans on a few funders — its largest provides 78% 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
93% 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 SCATTER.
“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
93% of SCATTER'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. Of the $25k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside Texas, across 1 state.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $315k 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.
