Overview

Mission

Our mission is to mentor youths, support artistic expression and serve the community as a hip-hop cultural resource. Our vison is to strengthen our community by pro-social leadership in the hip-hip culture.

What it reported doing in 2025

The cookup - is an after school program that provides lansing high school students with a hands on exploration of hip hop art forms. Students make music, dance, dj, record and create visual art pieces in a collaborative and culturally rich environment. Local practitioners work alongside participants in providing access to resources, instruction and opportunities to develop both technical and transferable competencies.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
