Who funds it, year by year

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
87% 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 CENTER FOR COMPETENCY BASED LEARNING.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 59% · 2023 93% — diversifying over time.

Where its funders are
87% of NATIONAL CENTER FOR COMPETENCY BASED LEARNING's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $111k 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.
