Key figures
- HOME MAKER itemizations sum to $4,796,498 ($4.8M) from 14,526 contributions and 714 donors.
- Mean amounts are about $330 per contribution and about $6,718 per donor record.

A two-word household title under $4.8M
$4,796,498 is the occupation-level dollar total. 14,526 is the itemization count. 714 is the donor-record count. Dividing dollars by lines yields about $330 per contribution. Dividing by donors yields about $6,718 per donor record. The repeat rate is about 20 itemizations per donor record.
714 donor records is a smaller pool than many clinical titles near the same dollar band. The per-donor mean of about $6,718 sits above typical support-staff keys. Twenty itemizations per donor record is moderate-to-high repeat. Those means are arithmetic, not medians.
The packet has no gift-size distribution and no party split. HOME MAKER is household-status text that committees accepted as occupation. It is not a NAICS industry and not a verified employment status.
Home maker is not homemaker and not housewife
HOMEMAKER, HOUSEWIFE, MOTHER, and MOM — if those strings exist as separate keys — are not rolled into this total unless the bulk extract normalized them to HOME MAKER. This page cites only $4,796,498, 14,526 contributions, and 714 donors. The space in HOME MAKER is part of the exact string.
FEC Form 3 and Form 3X collect occupation as free text on itemized Schedule A. FEC.gov publishes what committees reported. LobbyVault groups rows whose occupation field equals HOME MAKER after indexing.
