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 90% · 2018 97% · 2019 93% · 2020 92% · 2021 96% · 2022 92% · 2023 93% · 2024 91%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
39% of CANADIAN MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (6% for the typical peer).

From the CRA filings of CANADIAN MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024 is still being filed and is shown unshaded; it does not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
CANADIAN MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 30% of grant income, and it takes 3 funders to reach half.
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 CANADIAN MENTAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 83% · 2018 76% · 2019 65% · 2020 44% · 2021 29% · 2022 38% · 2023 41% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.
