Foundation data: grants paid, latest complete year 2023 (2024 partial — included, each grant labelled by fiscal year). Each grant below shows its fiscal year plainly. 990-PF grant rows carry no recipient EIN — the recipient name shown is the organisation GetFunded matched the row to; matches can be wrong, so check the filing object ID against the source filing.

Grants paid by fiscal year
From the foundation-years file. "Not linked" grants are counted here and in the total above, but have no named recipient to list. "Basis" is which 990-PF line the grants-paid figure was read from — qualifying distributions or disbursements for charitable purposes; the two lines are not the same measure. Years after FY2024, where present, are totals only — the matched-grant files end at FY2024, so no named grants are shown for those years.
| Fiscal year | Grants paid | Basis | Grants on file | Linked | Not linked | Amount not linked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FY2022 | $294,504,767.00 | qualifying_distributions | 8 | 6 | 2 | $31,000,000.00 |
| FY2021 | $424,391,548.00 | qualifying_distributions | 17 | 8 | 9 | $53,654,000.00 |
| FY2020 | $146,563,146.00 | qualifying_distributions | 28 | 12 | 16 | $44,464,000.00 |
| All years on file | $865,459,461.00 | 53 | 26 | 27 | $129,118,000.00 |
