26 total projects are represented by lightbulb icons. There were 13 new projects (shown by blue light bulb icons) and 13 continuing projects (shown by orange light bulbs). The value of projects invoiced is shown in a bar graph. The graph shows project value approximations: in 2022 projects were valued at over $600,000, in 2021 over $500,000, in 2020 over $400,000, and in 2019 over $600,000. CCBR’s projects spanned regionally (9), provincially and (5) nationally. The regional project total had a house icon beside it, the provincial total had a small yellow map of Ontario beside it, and the national total had a small blue map of Canada beside it. Project Direct Funders are represented in a donut-pie chart: non-profit (14); government (3); academic (8); private (1). Project service areas are shown in a donut-pie chart.
