Key figures
- $12,500 from 2 donors and 4 receipts is the Beren Corp × Wichita, KS join.
- $115,332,696 is the all-industry Wichita, KS book; this string is under 0.1% of that book.
- BEREN CORP is an exact filer-entered label, not a NAICS sector roll-up.
- Means near $3,125 per receipt and $6,250 per donor are arithmetic only.
- If the live hub disagrees, the newer FEC extract controls.
What this Beren Corp × Wichita, KS join is
This page is a join. One dimension is contributor city Wichita, KS. The other is employer or industry grouping Beren Corp (stored as BEREN CORP). $12,500 is the intersection — dollars on receipts that carry both labels. $115,332,696 is the city bucket before the employer filter, built from 210,063 itemized lines. The harvested donor count inside the intersection is 2 donors, not a census of everyone in Wichita, KS who ever worked under a related name.
LobbyVault does not add a third table and does not route these dollars through USAspending. A Form 3 itemization is not a federal award. Open the Wichita, KS city hub for the unfiltered city book, the Beren Corp industry hub for the grouping outside this city filter, Kansas campaign finance for the state roll-up, and All FEC ties for sibling joins. Each of those pages answers a different question. This one answers only the intersection.
Two donors on four receipts: a small, even line-to-headcount ratio. About $3,125 per receipt is $12,500 divided by 4. About $6,250 per harvested donor is $12,500 divided by 2. Those ratios describe shape. They are not medians and not typical salaries.
What the Wichita, KS city book holds
Wichita, KS indexes $115,332,696 ($115.3 million) on 210,063 itemized individual contributions. Wichita is a Sedgwick County, Kansas city string. Derby and Andover are other stored cities. Joint-fundraising and committee addresses that happen to list Wichita can sit in the same bucket as residents. The packet does not publish a unique-donor count for the city as a whole, so this page does not invent one from 210,063.
Kansas campaign-finance pages cover the state, which is a larger geography than Wichita, KS. Do not treat $115,332,696 as the KS state total. Unitemized federal gifts never carry a published city in this roll-up, so they never enter $115,332,696. State-office campaigns in Kansas file under state law and sit outside these FEC individual-contribution aggregates.
The Beren Corp slice inside Wichita, KS
Inside Wichita, KS, receipts tagged BEREN CORP total $12,500 on 4 lines from 2 donors. That is under 0.1% of $115,332,696. BEREN CORP is a stored employer name, not a Kansas energy NAICS roll-up. $12,500 counts only rows that stored this string in Wichita, KS.
Repeat gifts, household pairs, and spelling variants of Beren Corp that did not match this key never enter $12,500. Repeat gifts that did match add to 4 without necessarily adding to 2. Keep line count and donor count attached to their nouns when citing Wichita, KS. This extract does not publish committee names for the overlap.
Limits of the Beren Corp Wichita, KS snapshot
Unitemized gifts, Kansas state filings, and independent expenditures sit outside $12,500. LobbyVault does not recode Wichita into a Census place. If the live Wichita, KS or Beren Corp hubs disagree with $12,500, the newer FEC extract controls. PAC or joint-fundraising addresses that stored this pair of strings follow the same exact-match rule as household streets. The packet does not split those address types.
Correlation is not causation. $12,500 does not prove that Beren Corp directs Wichita, KS elections. Do not mix these FEC dollars with USAspending obligations. This packet has no award counts. All FEC ties is the index of other two-dimension pages. Campaign receipts and federal awards are different statutes even when both mention Wichita, KS.
Using Wichita, KS and Beren Corp links without mixing statutes
Internal links go to Wichita, KS, Beren Corp, Kansas campaign finance, and All FEC ties. Use those four doors (/cities/ks-wichita/, /industries/beren-corp/, /states/KS/, /ties/). FEC individual contributions are not USAspending awards. This packet has no obligation dollars. Do not add $12,500 to federal spending in Kansas.
Researchers citing the join should keep both nouns in the sentence: Beren Corp and Wichita, KS. Dropping either noun turns this page into a restatement of a hub it is not. Do not add $12,500 to $115,332,696; the first number is already inside the second.
Citing Beren Corp and Wichita, KS together
Keep both nouns in one sentence: Beren Corp and Wichita, KS, $12,500 on 4 receipts from 2 donors, against a city book of $115,332,696 (under 0.1%). Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault. City labels are filer-entered.
A later amendment wave can move a dollar without this file rewriting itself. Treat the live LobbyVault hub as newer than this packet snapshot. City-cycle and industry-cycle pages are other joins. This file stays on one employer string and one city string. If you need cycle cuts of Wichita, KS, those are city-cycle joins, not this file.

- What share of Wichita, KS itemized money is Beren Corp?
- $12,500 is under 0.1% of the $115.3 million Wichita, KS city book (210,063 city-field contributions). A thin share usually means other employer strings dominate the city tape, not that the grouping is absent. Quote both dollars. Do not upgrade under 0.1% into a sector ranking.
