The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 71% · 2018 68% · 2019 73% · 2020 76% · 2021 81% · 2022 82% · 2023 83% · 2024 83%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
15% of ATIRA WOMEN'S RESOURCE SOCIETY’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (2% for the typical peer).

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund ATIRA WOMEN'S RESOURCE SOCIETY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 58% · 2018 90% · 2019 43% · 2020 27% · 2021 26% · 2022 28% · 2023 81% — growing more concentrated.

Funder regions come from each funder’s own filing. C$501k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 regions is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
