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 2017 to 2018, from $342M to $577M (+69%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 32% · 2018 9% · 2019 27% · 2020 11% · 2021 12% · 2022 15% · 2023 21% · 2024 17%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
83% of ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (9% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 29 funders to 77 funders, grant income rose $5.5M → $28M.
25 of 172 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 52% 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: $100M from 42 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Enterprise Community Investment Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC raised.
From the IRS filings of ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 172 funders by total. Association, not causation. 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.
How concentrated its funding is
ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 34% of grant income, and it takes 4 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 4 funders to its left
54% 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 ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 18% · 2018 24% · 2019 25% · 2020 27% · 2021 44% · 2022 19% · 2023 19% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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.
How long its funders stay
43% of ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 55% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
52% of ENTERPRISE COMMUNITY PARTNERS INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $164M that is directly attributable, 99% of it comes from funders outside Maryland, across 27 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $174M arriving through sponsors registered in 13 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.
