Vermont Philanthropist as a giving-identity cell

Occupation PHILANTHROPIST and donor state VT produce $384,504, 73 contributions, and 8 donors. The occupation hub is $36,654,588, 21,462 contributions, and 761 donors. Vermont’s dollar share is about 1.0%; contribution share about 0.3% (73 of 21,462); donor share about 1.1% (8 of 761). This page is the intersection of those two FEC.gov fields, not a restatement of the Philanthropist hub and not a restatement of all Vermont occupations.

RETIRED, INVESTOR, and DONOR, if used, sit in other hubs. Do not stack PHILANTHROPIST with those strings into a single Vermont professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs. The FEC file stores the occupation exactly as entered. A longer or shorter variant is a different key.

8 Vermont donors produced 73 contributions, about 9.1 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 28.2 rows per donor nationally (21,462 contributions from 761 donors). Mean gift size in Vermont is the distinctive feature of this cell: 0.3% of national PHILANTHROPIST contributions against a 1.0% dollar share. The arithmetic mean gift in this Vermont cell is about $5,267, against about $1,708 nationwide. A high row count can be many small itemized gifts from the same people across cycles.

PHILANTHROPIST versus RETIRED on Vermont lines

PHILANTHROPIST is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a license, an employer, or a payroll title. The $36,654,588 national total is PHILANTHROPIST only. 761 donors produced 21,462 contributions in that occupation bucket. PHILANTHROPIST is a giving-identity label as typed, not a foundation Form 990 officer list. Nearby labels RETIRED, INVESTOR, and DONOR remain outside this occupation total even when one person has used more than one string.

This page does not split those 21,462 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Vermont (VT). 21,462 national contributions make PHILANTHROPIST a published occupation bucket; this tie locates the Vermont overlap. Independent expenditures and unitemized gifts are omitted. Committee identifiers on the itemized line are the recipient keys in the underlying file, but this packet does not publish a recipient breakdown.

Vermont as the state on the itemized record

8 Vermont donors produced 73 contributions totaling $384,504. Donor state VT is the address on the record, not proof of a Vermont license, and not a limit to Vermont candidates. VT is the address on the itemized record, not a map of which campaigns received the $384,504. Out-of-state committees can receive itemized gifts from VT-coded donors.

The Vermont campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to VT. This join is only PHILANTHROPIST. The Philanthropist occupation hub without Vermont still holds about 99.0% of the $36,654,588 (remainder $36,270,084). Vermont’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to VT. PHILANTHROPIST is only this filter. Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger; this page does not claim donations funded awards.

Foundation officer lists are not in the join

A 1.0% dollar share in Vermont does not rank the state as more or less political than others. Occupation labels are filer-entered. Correlation is not causation. This page does not name donors, does not invent committees, and does not treat 8 unique donors as a charity-registration extract. PHILANTHROPIST is not interchangeable with RETIRED, INVESTOR, and DONOR.

Quote $384,504, 73 contributions, and 8 donors for Philanthropist in Vermont, against $36,654,588 nationwide, source FEC.gov. Unitemized gifts stay outside the itemized aggregate. Cycle stacking can raise line counts without raising unique people. Public records describe overlap; they do not assign motive. Keep both sides of the join—Philanthropist and Vermont—whenever the dollars are quoted.

Vermont Philanthropist dollars next to gift and donor counts

A complete claim names Philanthropist and Vermont (VT), then $384,504, 73 contributions, 8 donors, and 1.0% of $36,654,588, source FEC.gov. Remainder outside Vermont: $36,270,084. Mean gift $5,267 is $384,504 divided by 73 lines in this state cell. Repeat the join without adding fields the packet does not publish. The canonical path is a ties URL, not a donor-detail URL.

Subtract the Vermont dollars on this page from the national PHILANTHROPIST occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded PHILANTHROPIST in every other state combined. That remainder ($36,270,084) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. A unique-donor count of 8 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. Keeping dollars, contribution count, and donor count on the same page is the point of the join.

Philanthropy occupation pages and Vermont finance

Philanthropist donations holds the $36,654,588 national occupation total. Vermont campaign finance holds the state’s itemized individual activity across occupations. All occupations and All FEC ties collect other occupation-state pairs from the same two fields. Original filings remain at FEC.gov. Occupation labels are filer-entered. This tie page quotes packet facts only. Philanthropy labeling strings that differ by even one word live on other hubs.
