This report identifies every Washington State nonprofit that reported receiving government grants on their IRS Form 990 — 3,641 organizations receiving a combined $4.2 billion in federal, state, and local government funding. Sorted by grant amount, segmented by sector and city, and annotated with grant dependency ratios, this report gives grant writers, funders, contractors, and researchers a complete map of how public money flows through Washington's nonprofit sector.

How to Use This Report

Step 1 — Find your sector. Page 2 shows grant recipients ranked by total government grants received. Use the sector column to filter for organizations in your mission area — potential partners, competitors, or funding pipeline references.

Step 2 — Read the dependency ratio. Each row shows government grants as a percentage of total revenue. Organizations above 75% are heavily government-dependent — strong indicators of recurring federal funding relationships. "Pass-Through" indicates the organization re-grants money to others.

Step 3 — Identify funding concentration. Page 3 shows grant flow by sector and city. Seattle receives $1.9B of WA's $4.2B total — over 44%. Organizations outside Seattle may face less competition for the same funding pools.

Step 4 — Cross-reference open grants. Use this list alongside the N7 Nonprofit + Open Grants Combo report to see which of these funded organizations are eligible for currently open grant opportunities — and which programs have funded similar work before.

Pass-Through Alert: 8 of the top 35 recipients are pass-through funders — organizations that receive government grants and re-distribute them to other nonprofits or individuals. Their grants-to-revenue ratio exceeds 100% due to IRS accounting treatment. 693 WA nonprofits derive more than 75% of revenue from government grants — high dependency signals both strong funding relationships and vulnerability to budget cuts. Spokane dominates food security — Second Harvest Inland Northwest received $293M across two fiscal years.

Intelligence derived from: IRS Form 990 e-file data — government grants received (Part VIII, Line 1e), tax years 2021–2025, 585,402 financial records processed; joined to IRS Exempt Organizations Business Master File (EO BMF) by EIN for organization name, sector, and location. Both datasets are public domain under the Freedom of Information Act. "Pass-Through" designation indicates organizations where reported government grants exceed total revenue — a known IRS 990 accounting pattern for re-granting organizations. GovProcure (Silent Northwest LLC) provides curation, analysis, and monthly delivery — not raw data access.

Why GovProcure

This N-Series report maps the nonprofit and grant-recipient landscape from the IRS Business Master File and Form 990 data — sector by sector, organization by organization. It shows who is funded, how much they handle, and where the gaps and partnership opportunities sit in your state.

Why GovProcure is the asset for federal data. The data is public — the work is not. SAM.gov, USASpending.gov, Grants.gov and the IRS Business Master File each live behind separate portals, formats and search limits. GovProcure ingests all four (over 3.2 million records, refreshed nightly), reconciles them, and hands you finished intelligence every Sunday morning. No exports to merge, no dashboards to build, no four-to-six hours a week lost to manual searching.

That is the edge: speed, coverage and clarity your competitors do not have. Raw federal search tells you what exists; GovProcure tells you what it means — incumbents up for recompete, set-asides you qualify for, grant cycles about to open, and the agencies actually spending in your space. Every figure traces back to its official source, so you can verify before you act. One subscription, every database, delivered — for less than the cost of a single hour of an analyst's time.
