Robert Rauschenberg Foundation: $36.5M Revenue, $14.1M Expenses

Robert Rauschenberg Foundation earns a C on the efficiency rubric — the median bucket on the NonprofitTruth scale, indicating performance close to the national midpoint across financial reserves, officer compensation, and revenue consistency. Composite score: 58/100.

At $36.5M in 2023 revenue, Robert Rauschenberg Foundation sits in the mid-range of the U.S. nonprofit distribution. Most organizations of this scale operate regionally or focus on a single program area. Reserves are the limiting factor: Robert Rauschenberg Foundation carries relatively few months of operating expenses on its balance sheet, which can leave an organization exposed if a major funding source pauses.

Five-year revenue trajectory is strongly positive: Robert Rauschenberg Foundation has grown materially in real terms, which usually signals successful fundraising and program expansion. Current-officer compensation is not separately reported in the filing — typical for nonprofits where leadership is paid through a related entity (parent system, university, or foundation) rather than the filing organization itself, or for small organizations whose chief is a volunteer or board member. Robert Rauschenberg Foundation sits in the cultural-nonprofit sector (Arts, Culture & Humanities). Museum, performing-arts, and cultural organizations carry distinctive financial patterns — earned revenue from ticket sales and admissions, plus a heavy reliance on endowment income and major donor cycles.
