A missing year means no return for that year has been released yet, not that the organization was inactive. Years marked fall in the 2020–21 pandemic giving surge, when contributions into donor-advised funds rose sharply across the sector; treat them as an unusual period rather than a baseline.

How these figures are calculated: methodology and disclosures. Source: IRS Form 990 e-file XML for fiscal year 2023, via the National Center for Charitable Statistics. Payout rate is DAF grants divided by DAF assets at year end. Recipient totals combine tax years 2019–2024 where filings are available. IRS release and parsing lag means recent years are incomplete for many organizations — NCCS advises treating the most recent year in the panel as partial.
