Geography
Observed grants in the latest year went to organizations in 47 states, indicating a national footprint even though one state received about one-third of total dollars.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows very broad recipient variety: 918 grants to 897 distinct organizations with low concentration (the top five accounted for about 14%), and two-year data shows many independent recipients with 193 repeat grantees.
New Applicants
Based on the observed two-year history, most 2024 recipients (about 78%) were new and the foundation operates a public platform for regranting; direct evidence of turnover across more years is limited but the available data shows strong newcomer access.
