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.
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 8% · 2018 8% · 2019 8% · 2020 76% · 2021 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
92% of LANSING ECONOMIC AREA PARTNERSHIP’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (61% for the typical peer).

Left out of every figure on this page: $776k from 3 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Leap Foundation Inc); $5k from one payer (the same organization on both sides, largest Lansing Economic Area Partnership). These are real filings, and they are not money LANSING ECONOMIC AREA PARTNERSHIP raised.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
96% 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 LANSING ECONOMIC AREA PARTNERSHIP.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 86% · 2018 100% · 2019 100% · 2020 100% — growing more concentrated.
