The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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.
Government-grant reliance: 2020 34% · 2021 33% · 2022 31% · 2023 40% · 2024 35% · 2025 45%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
