What Track Guy Foundation does

Mission

The Track Guy Foundation is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes to promote and expand access to track & field and cross-country for youth, particularly in Iowa. The Foundation provides running shoes to under served athletes, awards scholarships to graduating seniors, and supports camps, clinics, and coaching programs that build participation, character, and community. Through these initiatives, the Foundation removes financial barriers and inspires young people to pursue healthy, active lives through running and related athletics.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

52% 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 TRACK GUY FOUNDATION.
