A funder came back when it made its own grants in two or more tax years, by its own IRS return. Matching gifts, and gifts a donor-advised fund passes on for its donors, are shown and labelled, and do not count.

What this page does not knowread before quoting
  • Grants from funders that do not file a US return, and gifts from individuals.
  • Each row is what the funder said it paid, not what this organisation said it received.
  • A tax year that is not yet loaded looks like a year with no grant.
