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.
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: 2017 99% · 2018 99% · 2019 99% · 2020 98% · 2021 99% · 2022 99% · 2023 99% · 2024 99% · 2025 97%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

Left out of every figure on this page: $11M from one payer (the same organization on both sides, largest Upper East Tennessee Human Development Agency); $229k from 3 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest United Way of Greater Kingsport Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money UPPER EAST TENNESSEE HUMAN DEVELOPMENT AGENCY raised.

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 UPPER EAST TENNESSEE HUMAN DEVELOPMENT AGENCY.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $1k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 stateis 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.
