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.

03Who funds it

Left out of every figure on this page: $370k from 5 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Community Foundation of North Central Wisconsin Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money NORTHCENTRAL TECHNICAL COLLEGE FOUNDATION INC raised.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $22k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states 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.
