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

Government-grant reliance: 2017 53% · 2018 51% · 2021 62% · 2022 33% · 2023 44% · 2024 13%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
101% of SAND CREEK REGIONAL GREENWAY PARTNERSHIP INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (13% for the typical peer).
