Overview

Mission

350 Colorado Action is a public education and welfare organization focused on educating the public and decision-makers about the issue of climate change, and to encourage the transition away from polluting fossil fuels to a clean renewable energy future. We work to protect public health & safety and the environment from the dangers of fossil fuels.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 85% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
