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 96% · 2018 96% · 2019 94% · 2020 93%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
4% of THE ETOBICOKE CHILDREN'S CENTRE’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (34% for the typical peer).

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 THE ETOBICOKE CHILDREN'S CENTRE.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 60% · 2018 43% · 2019 40% · 2020 33% · 2021 96% · 2022 100% — growing more concentrated.

These figures are read directly from the CRA's published T3010 data: this organization’s own return for FY2020 (financials across 2017–2020), and the filings of 10 funders that report grants to it. “On record” means captured in the filings we have parsed — a funder that does not e-file, or whose grant detail is not itemized, will not appear. Filings run roughly 12–24 months behind. Trends on this page end at FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving; later years are shown and marked, and move no figure.
