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 2022 to 2023, from $587k to $1.1M (+80%).
How it's funded, over time

Government-grant reliance: 2017 11% · 2018 3% · 2019 33% · 2021 47% · 2022 49% · 2023 49% · 2024 53% · 2025 53%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

From the IRS filings of EarthGen Fka WA Green Schools’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 37 funders by total. Association, not causation.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left
39% 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 EarthGen Fka WA Green Schools.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 34% · 2018 27% · 2019 22% · 2020 19% · 2021 18% · 2022 16% · 2023 25% — diversifying over time.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $620k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
