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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 18 funders to 35 funders, grant income rose $1.1M → $2.3M.

Left out of every figure on this page: $7.9M from 8 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest United Way of Greater St Louis Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF GREATER ST LOUIS INC raised.
