Abstract
Grants from philanthropic foundations comprise one piece of the funding puzzle for many human service nonprofits (Marx, 1996; Young, 2007). This paper explores foundation grantmaking to human service nonprofits in Chicago, IL from 1990 to 2005. We find three classes of nonprofits: sustained players, nonprofits that are continuously funded (by different foundations); repeat players, nonprofits with greater than average duration of funding; and new entrants, nonprofits that secure foundation funding for only a few years. This paper explores the factors leading to this stratification of the grants economy and the consequences of such patterns.
