As 2025 comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on a year shaped by growth, collaboration, and meaningful progress across the fund management ecosystem.
This past year reinforced a clear trend across higher education, healthcare, community foundations and nonprofits: fund management is no longer a back-office function. It’s central to donor trust, institutional accountability, and long-term impact.
Here’s a snapshot of what 2025 looked like for FundMiner and the organizations we support.
In 2025, FundMiner expanded its presence across 22 states in the U.S. and into three countries: the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Organizations across higher education, healthcare, community foundations, and nonprofit sectors continued to adopt FundMiner to bring greater clarity and coordination to fund management.
This growth reflects more than scale. It signals a broader shift toward more intentional, transparent, and well-governed fund operations across mission-driven organizations.
Throughout the year, FundMiner users collectively managed activity across the platform that reflects how teams are using FundMiner to bring structure, visibility, and coordination to fund management:
$7.69 billion in endowment value managed on the platform
+164% growth in FundMiner platform users
+345% growth in the number of funds managed within FundMiner
Behind these numbers are development, finance, and stewardship teams using FundMiner to honor donor intent, reduce friction across departments, and make better decisions with centralized, reliable fund data.
Education and shared learning remained a core focus in 2025. FundMiner participated in more than 25 conferences, connecting with over 10,000 nonprofit professionals nationwide.
We also expanded our online events and learning opportunities to help teams navigate real-world fund management challenges.
