What The Meyrow Foundation does
Mission
The Meyrow Foundation is dedicated to creating programs that improve the lives of individuals living with parkinson's and their caregiver's today. This is done through the parkinsons wellness fund.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Play for parkinsons golf tournament - this is a major event that brings people together to play golf making them more aware of what is happening around parkinsons. This is accomplished both by obtaining sponsors for the various golf holes as well as throughout the day people with parkinsons playing with those who do not have parkinsons. Additionally, there is the end of day dinner at which people with parkinsons enlighten those in attendance whom do not have parkinsons about what their life is like. This goes a very long way to making people aware.
$0 spentSpin for parkinsons - this is an event where people come together to spin for the cause of parkinsons. The event brings average everyday people with an interest to do better for themselves and others together for an event that has great physical benefits. There are people with and without parkinsons at the event that allow asharing of thoughts, ideas and experiences that heightens the average persons understanding of what parkinsons is and how it affects people.
$0 spentAll in for parkinson's - this event is a poker tournament that raises awareness and funds for parkinson's wellness fund. Individuals enjoy a fun night to call attention to the charity and to help fundraise for the benefit of individuals living with parkinson's.
$0 spent
The 3 programs described on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $0.
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 $71k to $175k (+147%).
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 MEYROW FOUNDATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (82% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $16k → $16.
3 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 74% 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 THE MEYROW 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 MEYROW FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 65% 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
99% 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 MEYROW FOUNDATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 98% · 2022 45% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“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
74% of THE MEYROW FOUNDATION'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 $19k that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside California, across 2 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $56k 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.
Against its field
THE MEYROW FOUNDATION's revenue grew 59% between 2017 and 2024.
