03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 7 funders, grant income rose $104k → $192k.

3 of 11 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 45% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $591k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest United Way of Naugatuck and Beacon Falls Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NAUGATUCK INC raised.

From the IRS filings of YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NAUGATUCK INC’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.

YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NAUGATUCK INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 44% of grant income and the top three 91%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

90% 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 YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NAUGATUCK INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $552k 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.
