To accommodate the demand for school field trips (k-12), the museum expanded its daily hours by 30% in the fall and spring. "sign speak" was introduced as an option for all tours. This app uses ai to translate spoken english into asl and asl into text, and is available for visitors whenever the museum is open. (the museum continues to provide live asl interpreters when requested in advance.) the theme for the year, "woman must have a purse of her own" was launched at the susan b. Anthony birthday celebration in february, with featured key note speaker lori van dusen, award-winning founder of lvw advisors and wall street journal best-selling author. The theme, a quote from susan b. Anthony's diary, speaks to her commitment to financial independence and pay equity for all.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 8 funders, grant income rose $12k → $132k.
7 of 22 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 63% 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 SUSAN B ANTHONY HOUSE’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 SUSAN B ANTHONY HOUSE has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 23% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
64% 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 SUSAN B ANTHONY HOUSE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 96% · 2018 97% · 2019 37% · 2020 34% · 2021 40% · 2022 34% · 2023 61% — diversifying over time.
“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
53% of THE SUSAN B ANTHONY HOUSE's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 64% 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.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $478k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 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.
