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 2021 to 2022, from $6.0M to $5.0M (−16%).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base narrowed from 2 funders to 1 funder, grant income fell $47k → $42k.
1 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 1% 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: $37k from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest National Asphalt Pavement Association Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money NATIONAL ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASSOC RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATIONINC raised.
From the IRS filings of NATIONAL ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASSOC RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATIONINC’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.

NATIONAL ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASSOC RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATIONINC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 64% of grant income and the top three 99%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 NATIONAL ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASSOC RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATIONINC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 68% · 2018 71% · 2019 58% · 2020 64% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

Where its funders are
NATIONAL ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASSOC RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATIONINC draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside Maryland, across 3 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $5k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state 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.
