How to read this
Every US private foundation files Form 990-PF, and Part XV of that return itemises each
grant it paid, with the recipient's name. Lining those lists up across filing years shows
which organizations were funded for the first time.
That does work the application checkbox cannot. Whether a foundation says it accepts
unsolicited proposals is self-reported and never audited. The grant ledger is behaviour.
What this page does not tell you. Whether your work fits what
MathWorks Foundation Inc funds — no tax return contains that. Whether anyone on your board already knows a
trustee, which is how a great deal of foundation money actually moves. Or anything that has
changed since the last filing, which runs twelve to twenty-four months behind.
Flagged for review.
A high share of this funder's recipients appear in only one year. That is what genuine
turnover looks like, and also what a renamed grantee looks like, so the figure above may be
overstated. Match rate cannot distinguish the two.
