Western Organization of Resource Councils

This inventory identifies 21 Sixteen Thirty Fund grantees with Idaho connections in the research assembled as of September 18, 2026. It is a documented working inventory, not an exhaustive all-time audit. Amounts below are selected verified grant years, not lifetime totals. National grants are not Idaho spending totals. Links across different years describe organizational relationships, not necessarily sequential transfers of the same money. Direct Idaho recipients, checked against Sixteen Thirty's own 2021–2024 Schedule I filings: | Recipient | Sixteen Thirty grant(s) | Identifying detail | |---|---|---| | Idaho Values First Foundation Inc. | $495,000 (2021) | EIN 87-2846989. Continuity with the organization advertising under the Idaho Values First name in 2026 remains unresolved. | | Conservation Voters for Idaho | $60,000 (2021) | EIN 72-1599019; distinct from its education fund. | | Votes Idaho | $30,000 (2022); $163,000 (2024) | EIN 46-5415188; $193,000 identified total. | | Jannus Inc. | $56,000 (2023) | EIN 81-6035382; Boise nonprofit. | | Idaho Voices for Children Foundation Inc. | $110,740 (2024) | EIN 82-0478703; separate recipient from Jannus. | These six grants to five organizations total $914,740. The two identified 2024 Idaho-address grants total $273,740. National and regional recipients with concrete Idaho grant, campaign, membership or personnel connections: | Sixteen Thirty recipient | Selected Sixteen Thirty funding | Idaho connection | |---|---|---| | Western Futures Fund | $2,225,000 (2022); $2,750,000 (2024) | Separately funded Votes Idaho, , , and ; Way Back separately supported Idaho campaigns. | | | $11,796,000 (2024) | Separately granted $298,000 in 2024. | | / | $255,000 (2024) | IRS-derived prior grant records identify $65,000 to in 2022 and $20,000 to in 2023. The 2024 STF grant cannot establish financing of these earlier grants. | | | $1,225,000 (2024) | Its own campaign history confirms work with Idaho partners on Medicaid expansion in 2018. This is a historical campaign connection, not evidence the 2024 grant financed 2018 activity. | | | $550,000 (2022) | Multi-state advocacy organization serving Idaho, with documented Idaho electoral and legislative activity. Separate from . | | | $600,000 (2024) | says it won a WNN grant and subsequently hired staff and developed its Idaho housing-policy agenda; downstream grant amount unresolved. | | Western Organization of Resource Councils | $60,000 (2022) | is a formal member of the regional network.

Identity of the table operator is not established here; do not automatically identify it as . | Additional grantees with longer organizational funding paths into Idaho: | Sixteen Thirty recipient | Selected Sixteen Thirty funding | Longer route and limitation | |---|---|---| | | $1,050,000 (2024) | Education Fund separately funded ; that separate entity granted CVI Education Fund $60,000 in 2024. | | | $1,340,000 (2024) | Separately granted $450,000 in 2024, connecting to WFF's Idaho recipients. | | | $2,303,834 (2023) | IRS-derived records report $3 million to WFF across 2022–2023; a primary FEC filing also shows its separate $30,000 contribution to Way Back in November 2025. | | Sheriffs for Trusting Communities / | $700,000 (2022) | Same EIN 82-4042237; IRS-derived records show a separate $30,000 grant to WFF in 2024. | | | $6,800,000 (2024) | FEC-derived reporting lists $300,000 to Way Back in the 2025–2026 cycle. The recipient-level primary transaction has not been rechecked in this inventory; this route retains a secondary-data qualification. | | | $162,418 (2024) | Separately funded WFF, approximately $2.2 million across three grants in the prior research. Its grant and payroll-service relationships with STF are different transactions. | | | $1,395,000 (2024) | Longer routes through its grants to and , then WFF and Idaho recipients. Hopewell also funds STF, but that reciprocal connection is not counted as proof of an Idaho pass-through. | The direct Idaho grants are primary-filing verified. Several downstream edges rely on IRS-derived grant indexes identified in the sources; organizational pages support campaign, membership and personnel connections. Pooled funds, differing grant years and separate legal entities prevent attributing all downstream activity to Sixteen Thirty. Shared vendors alone are excluded. Western Conservation Action is not merged with . None of this establishes control of recipients, wrongdoing, or personal benefit to Governor Little, or members.
