Overview

Mission

To educate and inspire spirit and soul-based stewards of the earth.

What it reported doing in 2024

We served 45 residential retreat groups by offering space and support for groups teaching & practicing spirit, earth and soul-based practices. These groups included various disciplines including writing, yoga, meditation, authentic movements, art therapy, communication, native plant knowledge and uses and other related practices. We also hosted several single day local community events on a donation basis. The increase in residential retreats has supported a steady, but slow, financial recovery from covid related impacts and are starting to reinitiate some property improvement projects and deferred maintenance.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
