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

100% of HANDS FOR HUMANITY INC.’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (21% for the typical peer).
