Reading Designer and 2012 together
Cycle splits inside 2012 are unpublished here beyond the cycle total, contribution count, and donor count. Recipient committees for this cell live on the overlay, not in these headline facts. DESIGNER × 2012 holds $385,398 from 80 donors and 242 lines, only 4.54% of the $8,482,309 parent. Most of the DESIGNER book lives outside 2012. Eighty unique donors are not a census of working designers.
242 itemized lines from 80 donors describe repeat activity inside the cycle, not a headcount of everyone who ever worked at an organization using this string.
$8,096,911 lives in other windows
$8,096,911 (95.5%) of the DESIGNER parent sits outside 2012. That leftover is not itemized on this page. Open the Designer industry hub for the all-cycle book.
Campaign contributions grouped to DESIGNER are not USAspending awards. This join does not claim that $385,398 funded contracts, grants, or research.
