Larry Ellison

The four-line truth

Lines are separate lifecycle measures and are never summed: committed = donor-published award/approved-commitment flows or signed recipient-confirmed commitments within the displayed source coverage period, including exact named commitments, plus reviewed current forward-portfolio aggregates that are never accumulated across source snapshots; awaiting = latest-FY statutory 'approved for future payment' or audited future-support-obligation balance; deployed = disclosed paid amounts, split into statutory, recipient-confirmed, and donor-reported evidence; in vehicles = transfers to controlled vehicles, DAFs, recipient foundations, or unresolved associated vehicles pending onward evidence (withheld-amount gifts counted separately). Absence of events is absence of loaded evidence, not zero giving.

US private foundations must name material grantees on Form 990-PF, so recipient-level detail here is compelled, not volunteered.

Voluntary points reward disclosure the donor chose — publishing an open grants database, and naming recipients. Compelled points reflect how completely and how currently their statutory filings land. The split exists because disclosure regimes differ by jurisdiction: a high compelled score is law-abiding, not generous, and a low one may reflect a rule the donor did not write.
