AI Reasoning: Collier Community Foundation is a grant-making public charity and has public press releases showing grants in fiscal year ending June 30, 2024 (e.g., grants awarded Dec 4, 2024) and multiple grant announcements through 2025 (e.g., surprise grants announced Oct 16, 2025; recent grants page updated Sep 26, 2025). The entity’s activity consists of grant distributions rather than venture investments; however, the latest documented funding activity to nonprofits occurred within the 12-month window prior to the reference date, with a grant announcement on Oct 16, 2025 and updates in late 2025. Since the task asks to classify based on the last known investment (interpreted as funding activity) and we found grants as recent as Oct 2025, that would place the last funding within less than 3 months, but because Collier Community Foundation is a grant-making foundation (not a VC making investments in startups) and no evidence was found of venture investments in startups such as Naples Botanical Garden received a $25,000 grant (mentioned in FY2024 report) the appropriate classification per the instructions when only grant information is found is to mark as not-active if no clear investment in startups is found. The last known related funding to a named organization (Naples Botanical Garden) was in the FY2024 report dated Dec 4, 2024, which is more than 12 months prior to the cutoff used to decide activity, so the tag is not-active.

Not Active – No known investments in the last 12 months.

Low Activity – Only known investments between the last 12 and 6 months.

Active – Known investments between the last 6 and 3 months.

Very Active – Known investments in the last 3 months.
