Where Does $100 to the Heritage Foundation Go?
The Heritage Foundation (Heritage) is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization staffed by conservative “experts” who provide advice on political, economic, social, and financial problems in the United States. Based in Washington, DC Heritage raises about $80 million annually, spends about the same amount, but has about $250 million in net fund assets.
In 2018, Heritage raised $81 million, most of which came from contributions, gifts, and grants. Expenses totaled $80 million and can be viewed two ways: by broad general category (program service, management and general, and fundraising) or by specific line item categories (i.e. compensation, office-related, travel and conferences, fees for services, etc). Both ways are beneficial with the latter approach providing more specific detail on how revenue was spent. Read more
