Four highlighted projects include: a street medicine consult service at upmc shadyside, upmc prostate cancer clinic outreach program, clinical education residency program: developing the next generation of future nurse educators, and a research project to evaluate green light therapy for pain management for surgery patients.additional projects include the diabetes education scholarship, which provides medications, supplies, and counseling. The shadyside hospital improvement model provides salaries for two improvement specialists who work with the hospital to make improvements for patient safety and care.since 1975, our volunteer board has successfully stewarded the gifts of general donors, putting their dollars to work to help create a world-renowned hospital that makes our community strong. Supporting projects for quality care, education, and research that lie beyond the hospital's normal operating budget, the Shadyside Hospital Foundation changes lives.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $87M to $113M (+30%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 6% · 2018 2% · 2019 3% · 2020 9% · 2021 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
5% of SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (51% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 11 funders to 18 funders, grant income rose $323k → $3.7M.
3 of 32 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 40% 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: $560k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest The United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania). These are real filings, and they are not money SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION raised.
From the IRS filings of SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 32 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.
How concentrated its funding is
SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 39% of grant income and the top three 63%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
41% 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 SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 32% · 2018 26% · 2019 25% · 2020 25% · 2021 25% · 2022 21% · 2023 81% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
How long its funders stay
61% of SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 72% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
95% of SHADYSIDE HOSPITAL FOUNDATION's grant income comes from Pennsylvania funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.0M arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
