Overview
Mission
Advance diversity in the wine industry by attracting global attention to Oregon's aapi winemaking and culinary talent, empower the aapi individuals that make the state diverse and delicious, educate the public with non-traditional food and wine pairings, and support community organizations that promote diversity in the food and wine industry and beyond.
What it reported doing in 2024
Aapi food & wine was founded with the mission to celebrate the diverse wine and culinary scene that makes the pacific northwest, particularly Oregon, so unique. The annual aapi food & wine festival (with the goals of uplifting aapi food and wine businesses, promoting diversity and educating the public regarding non-traditional food and wine pairings) featured trailblazing aapi owned wineries and acclaimed aapi chefs over two days.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
