We firmly believe working with youth and teens involves much more than developing specific skills for sports or individual activities. Those are merely the tools to develop something much more important the whole child from the inside out. Our programs use the platform of a specific activity to teach skills necessary for life that are valuable at any age. This includes enjoying an active lifestyle, being part of a team, making good choices, playing fair, persevering against obstacles, stretching yourself to meet your potential and perhaps most important of all, being confident in who you are. Depending on the age or interests of our young participants, a variety of programs are available to teach those skills in an environment of spirited fun and, in some cases, friendly competition. The Y makes sure every child has an opportunity to envision and pursue a positive future and to take an active role in strengthening his or her community. Our programs offer opportunities for youth and teens to learn values and positive behaviors as they explore their own unique talents and…

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 2017 to 2018, from $57M to $54M (−5%).

12 of 34 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 13% 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: $2.8M from 9 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Young Men's Christian Association of Greensboro Endowment Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money Young Men's Christian Association of Greensboro Inc raised.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 3 funders to its left
89% 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 Young Men's Christian Association of Greensboro Inc.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $509k arriving through sponsors registered in 10 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.
