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 3% · 2018 3% · 2019 3% · 2020 3% · 2021 7% · 2022 5% · 2023 3% · 2024 3% · 2025 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
4% of ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (1% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 28 funders to 29 funders, grant income fell $3.3M → $690k.

Left out of every figure on this page: $141M from 3 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Arkansas Children's Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL raised.

Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay

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.

ARKANSAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL draws 74% of its grant income from funders outside Arkansas, across 26 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $882k arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
