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 46% · 2018 56% · 2019 58% · 2020 61% · 2021 43% · 2022 49% · 2023 54% · 2024 55%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
42% of SHUSWAP DISTRICT ARTS COUNCIL’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (11% for the typical peer).

From the CRA filings of SHUSWAP DISTRICT ARTS COUNCIL’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.

SHUSWAP DISTRICT ARTS COUNCIL leans on a few funders — its largest provides 93% of grant income and the top three 98%; 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 SHUSWAP DISTRICT ARTS COUNCIL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 99% · 2018 84% · 2019 96% · 2020 96% · 2021 100% · 2022 84% · 2023 95% — 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.
Where its funders are
93% of SHUSWAP DISTRICT ARTS COUNCIL's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the C$21k that is directly attributable, 66% of it comes from British Columbia funders.
In-province vs out-of-province, by year
Funder regions come from each funder’s own filing. C$273k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 region 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.
