I suspect this is one of the reasons RTTY tends to be "invisible" 
to a lot of the major DXpeditions.  Their "foundation" sponsorships 
tend to be attributed to CW and phone operation, their corporate 
sponsors generally cover radios and antennas while RTTY falls through 
the cracks.  

A RTTY DX Foundation would be one way to provide increased visibility 
for digital modes.  Another way might be to make it clear to the 
"traditional" DX foundations that support that you are a digital DXer 
and you expect them to require operations they support (with your 
contributions and dues) to provide "equal billing" for digital modes.  

Due to the time and cost to establish a separate RTTY DX Foundation, 
I would put the effort into convincing organizations like NCDXF, etc. 
to add digital representation to their "expectations checklist" before 
going the "independent" route. 

73,
