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 73% · 2018 71% · 2019 73% · 2020 78% · 2021 78% · 2022 74% · 2023 76% · 2024 77%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
10% of Waskasoo Environmental Education Society’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (5% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 6 funders to 4 funders, grant income fell C$32k → C$10k.
From the CRA filings of Waskasoo Environmental Education Society’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
Waskasoo Environmental Education Society leans on a few funders — its largest provides 80% of grant income and the top three 94%; 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 Waskasoo Environmental Education Society.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 66% · 2018 56% · 2019 34% · 2020 74% · 2021 37% · 2022 78% · 2023 67% — broadly stable.
“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
67% of Waskasoo Environmental Education Society's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 75% 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
81% of Waskasoo Environmental Education Society'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$122k that is directly attributable, 58% of it comes from funders outside Alberta, across 2 regions.
In-province vs out-of-province, by year
Funder regions come from each funder’s own filing. C$507k 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.
