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 2023 to 2024, from $35M to $58M (+66%).
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.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 10 funders to 23 funders, grant income rose $8.7M → $20M.
22 of 68 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 2% 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: $951k from 3 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Moorings Park Foundation Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money DAVID LAWRENCE MENTAL HEALTH CENTER INC raised.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
93% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund DAVID LAWRENCE MENTAL HEALTH CENTER INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 87% · 2018 91% · 2019 75% · 2020 84% · 2021 81% · 2022 86% · 2023 63% — diversifying over time.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
