Total revenue for the Nieman Foundation increased approximately 2 percent in FY16 from FY15. A few significant developments include:

• A 6 percent increase in endowment returns made available for operations
• One non-federal sponsored grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation in FY16.

Although the value of Nieman’s investments decreased approximately 7 percent from FY15 to FY16, our balance sheet remains strong, with more than $125,300,000 in long-term investments.

The Nieman Foundation is grateful to the many individuals, foundations, journalism organizations and other groups that support its programs each year. These generous gifts help fund Nieman Fellowships, publications, journalism events and awards, conferences and other special projects that help educate journalists on campus and around the globe and help advance Nieman’s mission and long-term goals.
