50% 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 LORD AND SCHRYVER CONSERVANCY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 50% · 2018 100% · 2019 52% · 2020 49% · 2021 92% · 2023 94% — growing more concentrated.
