What The Aopa Foundation does
Mission
To promote research and education within the field of orthotics and prosthetics (o&p)
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
American orthotic and prosthetic association leadership and the copl board of directors recognize the dire need for original evidence-based and outcomes research in o&p. Consequently, the copl pilot grant program is intended to fund original pilot studies that will support full-scale research projects and to encourage new knowledge generation from young investigators.
$111,347 spentof which $111,347 as grants100% of program spending
The program described on its FY2022 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $111,347.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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 $143k to $31k (−78%).
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 THE AOPA FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 4 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2021 → 2023: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $165k → $3k.
From the IRS filings of THE AOPA FOUNDATION’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
THE AOPA FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 69% of grant income and the top three 99%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
96% 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 THE AOPA FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2021 58% · 2022 83% · 2023 100% — growing more concentrated.
