Recorded status: IRS/primary records verify 1630→CaPA EF $1.05M, CaPA EF→CaPA $8.169M, and CaPA→1630 $1M in FY2024. Reciprocal organizational grants are documented; same-dollar tracing and Idaho earmarking are not established.
This is a dated research record. Its qualifications and open questions are part of the account. Association alone does not establish wrongdoing or control.
The Clean and Prosperous America branch shows a reciprocal organizational grant relationship with Sixteen Thirty Fund in FY2024, without proving that the same dollars moved back and forth. Sixteen Thirty's primary FY2024 Schedule I reports $1.05M to Clean and Prosperous America Education Fund (CaPA EF). CaPA EF's FY2024 filing reports an $8.169M general-support grant to Clean and Prosperous America (CaPA). CaPA's FY2024 Schedule I then reports two separate $500,000 grants to Sixteen Thirty Fund, $1.0M total. IRS-derived aggregation shows CaPA gave Sixteen Thirty about $1.8M across three grants in 2023–2024. CaPA simultaneously made a $60,000 2024 grant to Conservation Voters for Idaho Education Fund, while WFF separately gave CaPA EF $500,000. This creates a multi-directional institutional network: 1630→CaPA EF→CaPA→1630, with WFF→CaPA EF and CaPA→CVIEF also documented. These are grants among separate legal entities and do not establish same-dollar tracing or Idaho earmarking. Timing, pooled funds, grant purposes and CaPA's broader financial scale prevent transaction-level attribution. A useful next target is CaPA's grant documentation or donor criteria associated with the CVIEF grant, because CaPA separately states that donors selected geography or other criteria in most Strategic Grassroots Empowerment Fund cases.
