More Information

  1. 1 Financial Statements

    The Open Society Foundations are a network of separate funds and entities with no publicly available audited financial documents capturing the whole of the network. Open Society provides annual giving totals on its website.

  2. 2 Grants

    The Open Society Foundations award grants, scholarships, and fellowships to organizations and individuals whose work advances open society values. The Open Society Foundations are organized as a network of foundations and related entities, all dedicated to a common mission. Some of Open Society's national and regional foundations manage their grantmaking with local systems; those grants are not reflected in the database on the main Open Society website, but are often published on the individual websites of those foundations.

  3. 3 Total Assets/Total Giving

    The Open Society Foundations’ total expenditures in 2018 were $927.6 million. This number includes grants awarded, direct program expenses, advocacy, and operations. Note: Because Open Society’s charitable activities comprise more than grantmaking, this total includes funds that support other aspects of its charitable work, such as advocacy and litigation (one of its programs, the Open Society Justice Initiative, is an operating entity focused on human rights and litigation).
