UNITED WAY OF DELAWARE COUNTY

UNITED WAY OF DELAWARE COUNTY (Ohio) receives grants from 40 organizations whose IRS filings report $2,035,871 to it, the largest being COLUMBUS FOUNDATION ($342,611). 26 of them have funded it in more than one year, and 61% of the money arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors rather than from an institution directly. UNITED WAY OF DELAWARE COUNTY administers funds for other donors, so those contributions arrive into funds it holds rather than supporting a program it runs itself.

Hosts funds for others

UNITED WAY OF DELAWARE COUNTY administers funds on behalf of other donors. The grants recorded as coming in are contributions into those funds, so they count custody rather than support for a programUNITED WAY OF DELAWARE COUNTY runs itself. This page therefore states the flows and does not draw the comparisons it would draw for an operating charity: concentration, funder retention, grant dependency and the peer field are all left out, because each of them would read a vehicle as if it were a program.

Payments out run 5.4x the contributions on record, which says the incoming side is incomplete rather than that the vehicle is unusually busy: most donors to a fund like this are individuals, who file no return for us to read.

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.

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.

02Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

From the IRS filings of UNITED WAY OF DELAWARE COUNTY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 40 funders by total. 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.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1.2M arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
