How much FEC money links Founders Fund to 2014?

The 2014-cycle cell is $1,580,300 in itemized individual contributions, from 53 contributions and 2 donors, per FEC.gov aggregates. That join is not PAC spending and not the grouping’s $5,586,174 all-cycle total. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Did the fund itself donate $1,580,300?

The file is individual contributions tagged with the Founders Fund employer grouping. Those receipts are personal gifts. Corporate or PAC filings, if they exist under a similar name, are a different FEC form family. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

What share of the grouping’s total fell in 2014?

About 28.3%. $1,580,300 divided by $5,586,174 is the 2014 cell’s share of the lifetime employer bucket. Other cycles hold the rest on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Are these donations connected to federal awards?

No. This page reports FEC individual contribution aggregates. It does not include USAspending obligations and does not claim that campaign receipts funded federal awards. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the industry hub holds other cycles; the cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Founders Fund and the 2014 FEC cycle

$1,580,300 in itemized individual contributions is the 2014-cycle join for the Founders Fund employer grouping. Two donors and 53 contributions produced that sum on FEC.gov individual records. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $5,586,174, so this midterm window holds about 28.3% of the lifetime bucket — a concentrated venture-firm employer string, not a fund-level political account.

Founders Fund crossed with 2014

The employer hub stacks every cycle for Founders Fund. The 2014 cycle hub stacks every employer. This page keeps the overlap: $1,580,300. Fifty-three itemized gifts from two unique donors produced it. The relationship is a filter pair, not a finding that the firm ran a giving program.

Average contribution is about $29,817; average per donor is about $790,150. Those ratios describe a small set of large itemized receipts. With only two donor keys, one person can still dominate the cell without reducing the donor count to one.

Employer text is self-reported. Related spellings of the firm name may or may not sit in this same bucket.

More than a quarter of the grouping’s FEC total

$5,586,174 is every cycle combined. $1,580,300 in 2014 is about 28.3% of that stack. Other windows still hold about 72%. A midterm cell above 28% is a major chapter for this modest lifetime bucket, but it is not the entire employer story.

The industry hub is the place to compare 2014 with other cycles. This tie only certifies the 2014 arithmetic.

Two donors, 53 contributions

A 53-to-2 ratio is repeated itemized activity. Joint fundraising, multiple committees, and both years of the cycle all add rows while the unique-donor count stays at two.

Individual receipts remain personal gifts tagged with an employer string. They are not the same as a management-company PAC or a super PAC financed by a fund.

2014 as the cycle filter

2014 covers federal activity in 2013–2014. Founders Fund’s $1,580,300 is one employer slice of that window. Ranking employer cells as influence would add a claim the FEC individual file does not carry.

Midterm national totals are usually lower than presidential-year totals. That seasonal fact does not assign a reason to these two donors.

Venture-firm tags are still personal receipts

Founders Fund on an individual receipt is employer text, not a capital-call and not a fund PAC. Two unique-donor keys and 53 contributions produced $1,580,300 in 2014. Average gift size near $29,817 and per-donor mean near $790,150 describe a concentrated midterm cell.

A 28.3% share of $5,586,174 is a major chapter for this modest lifetime bucket. Other cycles still hold about 72%. Two donor keys means the cell is concentrated without collapsing to a one-donor page. Portfolio companies do not appear in these facts.

Related spellings of the firm name may or may not sit in this bucket. Party and candidate live on the overlay. Federal awards — including any that mention startups or innovation programs — live in USAspending. This join does not bridge those systems.

Venture-firm employer tags concentrate quickly. Two unique-donor keys, 53 gifts, $1,580,300, and a 28.3% share of $5,586,174 describe a major midterm chapter for a modest lifetime bucket. Average gift size near $29,817 is large relative to mass occupation cells. It is still a ratio of individual receipts, not a fund distribution.

Portfolio companies, LP lists, and unicorn narratives are not in these facts. Related spellings of the firm may sit elsewhere. The 2014 cycle hub will show other employer cells from the same window; sorting them is not a ranking of Silicon Valley influence. Super PAC filings are another form family. USAspending is another ledger.

Fifty-three contributions from two unique-donor keys can mix 2013 receipts with 2014 receipts without becoming a Founders Fund partnership vote. $1,580,300 and a 28.3% share of $5,586,174 are the midterm join facts. The overlay is short enough to read. Portfolio companies and federal innovation awards are not on this page.

What the join refuses to claim

The page does not identify portfolio companies. It does not show party. It does not link FEC gifts to USAspending awards, even if a related legal name appears in both systems.

Receipts are on the Founders Fund 2014 overlay. Other years are on the industry hub. Other 2014 employers are on the cycle hub. Other joins are on the ties index.
