$336,550 spentof which $336,550 as grants22% of program spendingSee schedule o events held in a variety of global venues where members of the community are brought together to discuss advancements in organ transplantation. Organ transplantation is a successful therapy for end stage organ failure of the kidney, liver, heart, lung, pancreas and intestine. Transplantation of cells and tissues also transformed the therapeutic options for patients with malignant haematological disease, eye disease and orthopaedic disease, and has the potential to alter significantly the therapeutic options for patients with diabetes and a range of disorders. The access of patients to transplantation therapy varies widely across the globe, partly determined by the underlying level of economic development in different states and partly determined by other factors such as the availability of organ, cell and tissue donors, or the specialized provision of health services. The organization has determined that it will seek to address global inequities in transplantation therapy, in order to facilitate appropriate access to transplantation for all patients who would benefit.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $15M to $13M (−17%).
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.
14% of The Transplantation Society’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (51% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 1 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
