Overview

Mission

American hunanese association (aha) provides educational assistance to the general public through the local promotion of chinese culture, the support of local and international educational programs, and the development of a platform for information exchange and entrepreneurship.

Chinese culture development: this program is to promote chinese culture in the areas of art, education and community services through the annual chinese new year celebration. This event attracts more than 400 community members every year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
