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 2020 to 2021, from $13M to $16M (+23%).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 25 funders to 51 funders, grant income rose $1.3M → $2.7M.
36 of 137 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 49% 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: $3.5M from 2 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Catholic Charities Foundation of the Diocese of Venice Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money CATHOLIC CHARITIES DIOCESE OF VENICE INC raised.
