The organization over time

Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $227k to $401k (+77%).

Government-grant reliance: 2020 14% · 2022 0% · 2023 2% · 2024 11%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
