03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

From the IRS filings of THE COLLABORATIVE TO END HUMAN TRAFFICKING’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

75% 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 COLLABORATIVE TO END HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
