What Shinnecock Kelp Farmers Incorporated does
Mission
The organization is formed for the purpose of restoring the health of the shinnecock bay through the cultivation of sugar kelp. Activities combine environmental restoration, traditional shinnecock knowledge, climate resilience efforts, and educating the public with workshops and training.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
The shinnecock kelp farmers continued to expand indigenous-led kelp restoration efforts through cultivation, deployment of marine lines, and community-based stewardship practices. Public engagement grew through widespread media coverage in nationally and internationally recognized outlets, helping to raise awareness of the environmental and cultural importance of indigenous aquaculture and coastal restoration.

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $207,513.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 2022 to 2023, from $106k to $342k (+222%).
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: 2023 14% · 2024 17%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
98% of SHINNECOCK KELP FARMERS INCORPORATED’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (88% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 3 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
3 of 7 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 23% 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 SHINNECOCK KELP FARMERS INCORPORATED’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
SHINNECOCK KELP FARMERS INCORPORATED leans on a few funders — its largest provides 68% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
92% 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 SHINNECOCK KELP FARMERS INCORPORATED.
“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
SHINNECOCK KELP FARMERS INCORPORATED draws 89% of its grant income from funders outside New York, across 3 states in all.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $154k 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.
