Programs
Leadership delegations - 2022-2024 saw the relaunching of delegation activity. Aifl continues to see high-impact delegation activity as a cornerstone of its continued activity base.

This is unheard of, as most organizations that engaged in webinars during the covid years have seen their numbers dwindle as life is resorting back to normal, and have therefore been forced to discontinue the webinar activity on a regular basis.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2019 to 2020, from $501k to $974k (+94%).
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: 2020 4% · 2021 8%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 15 funders to 17 funders, grant income rose $199k → $494k.
8 of 69 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 11% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $313k from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Jewish Communal Fund). These are real filings, and they are not money AMERICA-ISRAEL FRIENDSHIP LEAGUE INC raised.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $354k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 states 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.
