The money is concentrated: the average grant across all 51,124 payments is far larger than the $15,000 the typical funder gives, which means a small number of very large grants dominate the total. Most organizations here are competing for the $3,750 to $50,000 band, not the headline figure.
How to read these numbers
The typical grant range is the middle half of what these funders give: a quarter give less than $3,750 on average and a quarter give more than $50,000. It is drawn from 402 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.
