Program

  1. Vincentian charitable foundation is the philanthropic arm of vincentian collaborative system and its member ministries. In keeping with our charitable purpose, the member ministries serve persons of all religious backgrounds and income levels resulting in the provision of approximately $11.4 million in benevolent care during fy 2022. The foundation exists to provide financial support for that benevolent care, as well as program enhancements and capital improvements across the system. We do so through a balanced development program that seeks to connect charitably minded individuals with appropriate needs. This is done through a comprehensive program of communications and development efforts including individual gifts, grants and planned gifts. During fy 2022 the foundation did not have any activity and all net assets were transfered to vincentian collaborative system, the sole member of the foundation and subject to regulatory review and approval.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $12k → $29k.

3 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 VINCENTIAN COLLABORATIVE SYSTEM CHARITABLE 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

VINCENTIAN COLLABORATIVE SYSTEM CHARITABLE FOUNDATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 90% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.

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

100% 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 VINCENTIAN COLLABORATIVE SYSTEM CHARITABLE FOUNDATION.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

Where its funders are

100% of VINCENTIAN COLLABORATIVE SYSTEM CHARITABLE 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 $50 that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Pennsylvania funders.

PA

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $161k 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.
