The organization over time

Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $4.9B to $6.3B (+28%).

20 of 249 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 6% 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: $117M from 18 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Emory University); $2.0M from one payer (an institutional transfer, not a grant programme, largest Suntrust Bank Charitable-Irr Tr(1071). These are real filings, and they are not money CHILDREN'S HEALTHCARE OF ATLANTA INC raised.
