HOME MANAGER as FEC employer text: $20.5 million

Contributors who listed HOME MANAGER on federal itemized receipts account for $20,464,699, according to FEC.gov aggregates on LobbyVault. The cluster is 43,504 contributions from 1,340 donors. HOME MANAGER is a self-reported status phrase, not a NAICS household-services code and not a professional property-management census. It sits beside HOMEMAKER, HOUSEWIFE, and Homemaker/Homemaker as a separate stored string.

Key figures

  • HOME MANAGER as FEC employer text totals $20,464,699 from 1,340 donors.
  • 43,504 contribution lines sit under that two-word string.
  • HOMEMAKER, HOUSEWIFE, and Homemaker/Homemaker are separate FEC keys.
  • The label is self-reported form text, not a NAICS industry.

A household phrase ranked as an industry

FEC forms ask for employer. Some filers write HOME MANAGER instead of HOMEMAKER or HOUSEWIFE. LobbyVault’s industry ranking treats that two-word phrase as its own key and sums the attached itemized gifts to $20,464,699. The figure is not a count of professional home-care agencies, and it is not the same row as HOMEMAKER’s much larger standalone total.

Software defaults, volunteer forms, and personal preference all spread household-status words across many spellings. LobbyVault does not recode HOME MANAGER into HOMEMAKER. A donor who used both phrases on different receipts appears in each row only for the receipts that match.

1,340 donors and 43,504 lines

1,340 unique donors produced 43,504 HOME MANAGER contribution lines totaling $20,464,699. That is on the order of 32 itemized receipts per donor, a repeat-heavy pattern. The packet does not publish party share or a mean ticket as separate FEC fields.

Compared with Homemaker/Homemaker’s 1,498 donors and 17,943 lines, HOME MANAGER has fewer unique people but more than twice the line count. That is a filing-volume contrast between two household strings, not a statement about which label is more common in the population.

Donor table without household inference

The HOME MANAGER donor table lists disclosed contributors attached to this string. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not infer a spouse’s employer, household wealth, or motive from the two words. The FEC field stores what was typed.

Occupation pages may show a second field — homemaker, none, retired, or something else — beside the same people. Those occupation words also exist as industry keys when they were placed in the employer box.

Sibling household strings

HOMEMAKER, HOUSEWIFE, HOUSE WIFE, Homemaker/Homemaker, VOLUNTEER, and NOT EMPLOYED are related self-descriptions. Each keeps its own total. HOME MANAGER is this two-word phrase only. Placeholders such as REQUESTED are missing-data labels, not this status.

A combined household-status recode is a researcher choice. It must list every key and accept cross-receipt overlap. This page stays at $20,464,699, 43,504 lines, and 1,340 donors for HOME MANAGER.

HOME MANAGER’s 43,504 lines from 1,340 donors mean the table is repeat-heavy even though the unique-person count is modest. The $20,464,699 total does not include HOMEMAKER’s larger standalone row or Homemaker/Homemaker’s slash duplicate. Unitemized gifts stay out. Occupation pages may show a companion field that disagrees with the two-word employer phrase on a later receipt; that later receipt leaves this row. Placeholders such as REQUESTED are missing-data labels, not this status. Open the industry index to compare household strings.

How HOME MANAGER sits beside other household strings

HOME MANAGER’s $20,464,699 from 1,340 donors and 43,504 lines is a two-word household phrase, not professional property-management NAICS. Compared with Homemaker/Homemaker’s 1,498 donors and 17,943 lines, this row has fewer unique people and more than twice the receipts — a paperwork contrast, not a population ranking. Unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are outside the $20,464,699.

HOMEMAKER, HOUSEWIFE, HOUSE WIFE, Homemaker/Homemaker, VOLUNTEER, and NOT EMPLOYED remain separate keys. A donor can appear under more than one of those strings across different receipts. LobbyVault does not recode HOME MANAGER into HOMEMAKER. Placeholders such as REQUESTED mean missing employer data and are not this status.

The donor table lists disclosed names and committees attached to HOME MANAGER. LobbyVault does not infer a spouse’s employer or household wealth from the two words. Occupation pages may show homemaker, none, or retired in the companion field. Source: FEC.gov via LobbyVault, $20,464,699, 43,504 contributions, 1,340 donors, top employer HOME MANAGER.

Questions

How much have HOME MANAGER-listed donors given federally?
LobbyVault attributes $20,464,699 to the HOME MANAGER employer string, from 43,504 contributions and 1,340 donors. These are itemized individual receipts, not a NAICS household-services total and not the HOMEMAKER row. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Figures on this answer are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault; unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.
Is HOME MANAGER the same as HOMEMAKER in FEC data?
No. They are different self-reported strings. HOMEMAKER is a separate industry row with its own dollar total. A receipt stamped HOME MANAGER is counted only in the $20,464,699 here. LobbyVault does not merge the two phrases. Figures on this answer are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault; unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.
Does this count professional property managers?
Not as a certified occupation census. HOME MANAGER is whatever filers typed. Some may mean household status; some may mean a job. The 1,340 donors and $20,464,699 total are the stored text cluster, not a license roster for property management.
Why are there more contributions than donors?
The 43,504 lines include repeat gifts from the same 1,340 people. Recurring itemized donations raise the receipt count. The FEC field records each itemized transaction, not a once-per-person census. Figures on this answer are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault; unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.
