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.
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.
100% of SANTA'S HELPERS ASSOCIATION’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (97% for the typical peer).
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2021: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell C$96 → C$25.
From the CRA filings of SANTA'S HELPERS 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
SANTA'S HELPERS ASSOCIATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 83% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder 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 SANTA'S HELPERS ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2021 100% — broadly stable.
