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.
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

From the IRS filings of SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.

How concentrated its funding is
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 79% of grant income and the top three 100%; 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 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONTRACTORS ASSOCIATION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 70% · 2018 70% · 2019 90% · 2020 90% · 2021 69% · 2022 65% · 2023 87% — growing more concentrated.
