How much did Stanford University donors give in 2010?

FEC.gov aggregates show $546,436 in itemized individual contributions for the Stanford University grouping in the 2010 cycle, across 513 contributions and 154 donors. That sum is not a PAC total, not an independent-expenditure total, and not the $15,350,461 all-cycle figure on the industry hub. Unitemized gifts sit outside this cell.

What share of Stanford University FEC money is 2010?

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $15,350,461. The 2010 cell of $546,436 is about 3.6% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 96.4% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Stanford University hub holds other cycles; the 2010 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Does this include only current Stanford University employees or licensees?

No. The bucket is the self-reported string Stanford University. The FEC does not verify licenses or current jobs. Neighboring spellings and titles sit in other groupings unless they were stored as this exact key. This join reports the string match for 2010 only, totaling $546,436 from 154 donors on 513 contribution lines.

Stanford University and the 2010 FEC election cycle

$546,436 in itemized individual contributions is the 2010-cycle join for the employer/occupation grouping Stanford University. FEC.gov aggregates count 513 contributions from 154 donors. The same string totals $15,350,461 across every cycle in this table, so the cell is about 3.6% of the lifetime bucket — a self-reported label meeting a two-year window, not the university’s PAC and not an endowment or tuition total.

Stanford University as stored text, 2010 as cycle

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Stanford University and 2010 — sum to $546,436. 513 itemized contributions and 154 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables. 2010 is a midterm even-year window; that fact describes the FEC calendar, not which contests received the money.

Neither the Stanford University hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Stanford University is stored form text, not a verified employer file. 154 donors and 513 lines in 2010 matched that word. People who typed Stanford alone, a hospital affiliate, or a school name sit in other buckets. STANFORD, STANFORD UNIV, and STANFORD HOSPITAL are other keys. This page is the exact grouped string Stanford University as stored.

3.6% of the Stanford University roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $15,350,461. The 2010 slice of $546,436 is about 3.6% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 96.4%. Treating 2010 as the Stanford University FEC story would ignore that remainder. The share is a scale check, not a peak-year ranking and not proof of a coordinated program.

Treat $15,350,461 as the denominator for the 3.6% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, not assets under management, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $15,350,461. Federal awards in other databases remain a different dataset; sharing a calendar year does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants.

513 contributions from 154 donors

Dividing $546,436 by 513 contributions yields about $1,065 per itemized gift. Dividing by 154 donors yields about $3,548 per donor. Contributions per donor average about 3.3. Those means describe the arithmetic on the packet. They are not medians, not a party split, and not a typical-gift claim. Faculty, staff, students, and household members can share the employer string.

154 unique donors are contributor identities, not a headcount of employees, licensees, or members. Retirees and household members who reuse a workplace or title can appear. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count faster than the donor count. The overlay for Stanford University 2010 holds the rows. Recipients can include candidate committees, party committees, leadership PACs, and Super PACs; this join does not split those buckets in the headline facts.

2010 as the cycle dimension

The 2010 election cycle hub includes every stored employer for that window. Stanford University is one cell in that matrix. This packet does not publish a cycle-wide denominator, so no national share is stated. Open the 2010 election cycle to drop the employer filter and Stanford University to drop the year. Gifts from both years of the two-year FEC window sit in the $546,436 cell because the cycle is a two-year tag, not a single Tuesday.

That mechanical fact is easy to forget when a searcher wants an election-night number. The overlay is where dates become visible. This join publishes the cycle total, the 513 contributions, the 154 unique donors, and the 3.6% share of $15,350,461. Correlation between an employer or occupation string and a cycle year is not causation. The records show a text match, a date window, 154 donors, and 513 contributions.

Titles the Commission does not verify

Itemized individual receipts are the universe. Unitemized gifts, independent expenditures, and PAC disbursements sit outside $546,436. STANFORD, STANFORD UNIV, and STANFORD HOSPITAL are other keys. People who typed Stanford alone, a hospital affiliate, or a school name are counted elsewhere unless the treasurer grouped them to this exact string. Faculty, staff, students, and household members can share the employer string. The page is not the university’s PAC and not an endowment or tuition total.

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. Stanford University is the spelling as committees stored it. Researchers who want a combined family of neighboring labels must recode after export. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. Sharing an employer string and a calendar year does not attach a motive, a client matter, or a federal award to the $546,436 cell.

Citing Stanford University and 2010 together

Start with $546,436, then Stanford University 2010 for rows, then the industry hub or the 2010 election cycle if a filter needs to come off. Citation template: Stanford University, 2010, $546,436, 513 contributions, 154 donors, 3.6% of $15,350,461, source FEC.gov. Keep neighboring spellings and occupation titles out of the total unless they grouped to this exact string.

The 3.6% share, the 154-donor count, and the $1,065 mean gift belong to this intersection. Carry them onto a successor label or a sibling occupation word and they stop being facts from this packet. This prose is a packet snapshot. If a later extract disagrees, FEC.gov and the live overlay control. The join exists because two tables meet; it is not a restatement of one hub.
