Overview

Mission

Alano club of kalispell provides a safe meeting location for twelve step recovery groups.

What it reported doing in 2025

We still continue to provide a clean, safe and welcoming environment for those seeking help with addiction recovery or are impacted by someone else's addiction. We completely replaced the facia on the building with new metal as well as repainting the building to give it a more welcoming look. We upgraded/remodeled the 920 sf enclosed patio area into another meeting room due to the increase for those seeking help with recovery. We continue working to have the building remodeled to add meeting space in an area of the building that desperately needs work.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 87% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
