Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

State-based civic engagement tables and voter mobilization infrastructure
Immigrant rights legal services, defense networks, and organizing
Racial justice organizing led by Black, Latino, Asian American groups
Southern and Southwestern state power-building (NC, GA, AL, MS, LA, AZ, NM)
Clean energy and climate funding intermediaries
Pipeline and workforce programs for underrepresented technologists and professionals

Typical grant

Median grant is $80,000, with the middle half between $25,000 and $175,000. The very large checks go to intermediaries and regrantors (Breakthrough Energy Foundation at $23.6M, Asian American Advancing Justice at $3.7M, Ford Foundation at $2.1M) rather than to direct-service organizations; a strong direct grantee lands in the $250,000 to $1 million range. With 1,285 grants to 812 recipients over three years, most relationships repeat, and state tables in particular appear year over year.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

“Program Grant”
“civic engagement”
“voting rights”
“immigrant rights”
“state table”

Positioning adjacent work

Anchor to a named state table (Blueprint NC, One Arizona, ProGeorgia) rather than pitching a national frame.
Ask $100,000 to $300,000 for a first grant; seven-figure asks go to regrantors and intermediaries.
Emphasize community-led organizing and coalition membership over independent research; university grants here are rare.
Lead with a Southern or Southwestern geography; NC, DC, TX, GA, AZ, MS dominate outside California.

Worth knowing: Neo is a fiscal sponsor and pooled-fund manager, so much of this money is donor-directed regranting rather than open discretionary giving, and the single Breakthrough Energy grant is 11 percent of the three-year total. Giving is relationship-driven and concentrated in an established network of state civic engagement tables and immigrant rights coalitions, so entry usually comes through an existing grantee or a pooled fund, not a cold approach.

Top recipients

Repeat recipients are the strongest signal of whether a funder has an open door or quietly re-funds the same organizations.
