Voluntary Contributions to International Organizations — CFDA 19.791

$813,608,996.52 in federal obligations is indexed on USAspending.gov for Voluntary Contributions to International Organizations (CFDA 19.791). The listing carries 92 awards, 26 recipients, and a 0-jurisdiction geographic count. Those dollars are assistance obligations, not outlays and not a count of treaties, assessed dues, or missions funded. Zero jurisdictions is the distinctive fingerprint: this extract does not code place-of-performance to U.S. states. The 0-jurisdiction geographic count is a coding result on an international-organization extract, and the $813,608,996.52 stock should still be read as USAspending obligations under CFDA 19.791. Rounded to the nearest dollar, USAspending.gov indexes $813,608,997.

Voluntary IO obligations at $813,608,996.52

USAspending.gov records $813,608,996.52 in obligations under CFDA 19.791. Ninety-two awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $8,843,576 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical assessed contribution and not a cost per organization. Other Department of State international-organization listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $813,608,996.52.

The assistance-listing title is VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS TO INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS. CFDA 19.791 is the identifier. Combining 19.791 with assessed-contribution or peacekeeping codes would invent a combined IO total this packet does not contain. Read the $813,608,996.52 as the obligation book tagged 19.791 only.

26 recipients and a 0-state map

Twenty-six recipients share 92 awards, or about 3.5 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $813,608,996.52 evenly would assign about $31.3 million per recipient. That density is an international-organization pattern: a small named-payee headcount carrying several assistance rows. The packet does not list the 26.

Zero jurisdictions in the geographic count means the USAspending state field is empty on this extract. That is expected for a voluntary-contributions listing whose place of performance is not a U.S. state. Do not treat 0 as “no spending.” The $813,608,996.52 still sits on 92 awards. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of member states of those organizations.

Award rows are not a dues census

Among State listings, 19.791 is a low-row, high-dollar file: 92 awards against 26 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of international organizations supported” and a worse proxy for assessed shares. Recipients (26) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (92) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report assessed vs. voluntary splits, treaty articles, or mission staffing. Citing 92 as organizations would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $813,608,996.52 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov.

Obligations versus IO-contribution outlays

The $813,608,996.52 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Voluntary Contributions to International Organizations awards — are not in the packet. An IO file can show a large obligation stock while transfers follow fiscal calendars of the receiving organizations. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Use CFDA 19.791 to size this voluntary-contributions listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a United Nations budget dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 19.791.

What the 19.791 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not an assessed-dues schedule, not a treaty list, and not a foreign-assistance country table. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $813,608,996.52. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 92 award rows.

A 0-jurisdiction geographic count is a coding result, not a missing-data error on the dollar total. Read the program page before treating empty state cells as empty spending. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already transferred.

Quote $813,608,996.52 as the USAspending obligation stock for Voluntary Contributions to International Organizations only. About 3.5 award records per recipient is the density story. Assessed dues and mission staffing remain outside the packet. Outlays are a separate column.
