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 1% · 2018 1% · 2020 3% · 2022 2% · 2024 0%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
35% of NORTH ISLAND WILDLIFE RECOVERY ASSOCIATION’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (50% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

From the CRA filings of NORTH ISLAND WILDLIFE RECOVERY 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
NORTH ISLAND WILDLIFE RECOVERY ASSOCIATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 46% of grant income and the top three 90%; half comes from just 2 funders.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 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 NORTH ISLAND WILDLIFE RECOVERY ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 70% · 2018 69% · 2019 68% · 2020 43% · 2021 64% · 2022 49% · 2023 52% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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 long its funders stay
61% of NORTH ISLAND WILDLIFE RECOVERY ASSOCIATION's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 58% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
NORTH ISLAND WILDLIFE RECOVERY ASSOCIATION draws 86% of its grant income from funders outside British Columbia, across 3 regions in all.
In-province vs out-of-province, by year
Funder regions come from each funder’s own filing. C$822k 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. 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.
