The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 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 2018 to 2019, from $53M to $35M (−34%).
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 0% · 2021 21% · 2022 9% · 2025 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
13% of THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (81% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base held at 3 funders, grant income rose $69k → $160k.
6 of 20 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 57% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $3.9M from 4 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Baton Rouge Area Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA raised.
From the IRS filings of THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA leans on a few funders — its largest provides 54% of grant income and the top three 87%; 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 THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 84% · 2018 62% · 2019 88% · 2020 59% · 2021 95% · 2022 81% · 2023 83% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
25% of THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 45% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
57% of THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF THE CAPITAL AREA's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $1.6M that is directly attributable, 98% of it comes from funders outside Louisiana, across 7 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.1M arriving through sponsors registered in 5 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
