The given pie chart illustrates the financial distribution of a children's charity based in the
United States of America during the year 2016. The chart presents information about the
expenditures and income of the charity.
Overall, it is evident that a substantial amount of money was both spent and received by
the children's charity in the specified year. The chart provides a detailed breakdown of the
proportions of money allocated to different categories.
Looking at the expenditure section, the charity spent the majority of its funds on program
services, accounting for 95,8% of the total expenditure. This indicates that the charity's
main focus was on providing direct assistance and support to children. Meanwhile,
management and fundraising expenses constituted 1,6% and 2,6% of the total expenditure,
respectively.
Regarding the charity's income, it can be observed that donations formed the largest
portion, constituting 100% of the total income. This suggests that the generosity of donors
played a significant role in sustaining the operations of the children's charity. Additionally,
the chart indicates that 86,6% of the income was generated through donated food,
implying that the charity received direct payments for the services it rendered. The number
of the figures come largely from community contributions, program revenue, investment
income, government grants and other income.
In conclusion, the pie chart provides a comprehensive overview of the expenditure and
income of a children's charity situated in the USA during the year 2016. The data highlights
the charity's primary focus on program services, as both its largest expenditure and a
significant source of income. Donations played a crucial role in supporting the charity's
activities, while management and fundraising expenses were also noteworthy.
