Part 4 - Financials: Of the 13,246 installs out there, only 24 support the project as members (.2% of our user base). If we could push that # to 1% , our funding gap would be closed. Our focus for '26; grow the # of CiviCRM members & increase end user participation in the support of the project.

Part 3 - Financials: In general, CiviCRM's financials actually look quite good, with growth across a number of areas. However, there is one gap in our approach that we're working to close: community support needs to grow dramatically, specifically direct support from end user organizations.

Part 2 - Financials: The primary implication of operating at a loss is that it shifts Core Team priorities from continuously improving the product to focusing exclusively on sustaining the project. This means scaling down capacity and development efforts, risking overall product stagnation.

Part 1 - Financials: Not all of the metrics in our monthly project snapshot are good. The glaring issue is currently our budget shortfall for the past 12 months; we're $29k off the mark. tinyurl.com/nvf2uk3z
