The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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.
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: 2020 55% · 2021 51% · 2022 91% · 2023 26% · 2024 16%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
30% of Greenville Housing Fund’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (39% for the typical peer).

Left out of every figure on this page: $493k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest United Way of Greenville County Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money Greenville Housing Fund raised.
From the IRS filings of Greenville Housing Fund’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
Greenville Housing Fund leans on a few funders — its largest provides 65% of grant income and the top three 98%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
66% 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 Greenville Housing Fund.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 80% · 2021 100% · 2022 64% · 2023 92% — growing more concentrated.
