The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 2019 to 2020, from $69k to $12k (−83%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2019 98% · 2020 93% · 2021 99% · 2022 98% · 2023 97% · 2024 100% · 2025 100%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of SOCIAL INNOVATION LABORATORY INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (91% for the typical peer).
