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 2020 to 2021, from $2.6M to $4.3M (+65%).
How it's funded, over time

4 of 15 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 38% 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: $10M from 8 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Jewish Federation of Greater Indianapolis Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER ASSOCIATION OF INDIANAPOLIS INCORPORATED raised.
From the IRS filings of JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER ASSOCIATION OF INDIANAPOLIS INCORPORATED’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
49% 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 JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER ASSOCIATION OF INDIANAPOLIS INCORPORATED.
