Headline totals include only verified, currently relevant opportunities with explicit nonprofit evidence. Nationwide grants are labeled separately from California-specific programs.

Aggregates refresh daily. The page’s last-modified signal changes only when membership, material source facts, statistics, or editorial copy changes. Missing award amounts are never treated as zero.
