Members: of the 190 active today, 105 joined Jan 2026 – Sep 2026 (shown) and 85 joined earlier (2021-2025). Join month is the original Member Since date. The roster lists active members only, so lapsed members do not appear and the counts change as the roster changes. Contributions: each month counts gifts by the date received, so months add up as a true flow.
Live figures come from BigQuery queries (
v_social_mu, email_campaigns, ga_performance, events, and mu-organizing-app.organizer_analytics.organizing_attempts_summary, a separate Google Cloud project connected 2026-09-18). They update each time the page regenerates. Volunteers, membership, and contributions come from VAN exports (VAN is the voter and member database). Those exports carry names, VANIDs, phone numbers, and addresses, so staff enter only aggregate counts into manual_metrics.json. Row-level data stays out of BigQuery and out of git. Regenerate: network_power_report.py --period ytd.
