why did expenses rise by $21mm though? is the organization fortunate that donations rise fast enough to cover an annual increase in necessary spending, or does the spending grow as much as necessary to consume the donations?

WMF spent $52mm in FY 2014-2015. it spent $112mm in FY 2019-2020. is the core project really twice as expensive to run as it was five years ago?



No, core project costs less than $5M/year to run. They spend more on processing donations (credit card fees etc) than they do on web hosting.
