What this tells you
Only 19% say they accept unsolicited applications, against 26% across this data as a whole. This is a group where an introduction tends to matter more than a strong letter of inquiry.
The money is concentrated: the average grant across all 18,854 payments is far larger than the $8,500 the typical funder gives, which means a small number of very large grants dominate the total. Most organizations here are competing for the $2,650 to $20,000 band, not the headline figure.
18% are public charities that make grants, such as community foundations, rather than private foundations. They are easy to miss because they file a Form 990 rather than a 990-PF, and most foundation directories are built around the 990-PF.
How to read these numbers
The typical grant range is the middle half of what these funders give: a quarter give less than $2,650 on average and a quarter give more than $20,000. It is drawn from 504 funders who itemized their grants, so it describes what they actually paid rather than what they say they will consider.
Which of them would fund your work?
That is the part this page cannot answer. Praenum reads your organization's mission and ranks the grantmakers whose own filings show they fund work like yours, then emails you a short list every Tuesday. It also reads your own IRS filing, so it knows which foundations have already funded you.
