Overview

Mission

The primary exempt purpose is to function as an association of individuals for scientific and educational purposes related to the control of mosquitos and/or other vestors of disease if annoyance for the benefit of the public.

What it reported doing in 2024

The amca annual meeting consists of educational sessions and exhibits that illustrate and highlight the latest science, technology, and products used to conduct research and control vectors. These expenses also include forming committees, promoting the education of the public through conference with other members, tracking of mosquitos for numbers and viruses, and publishing results, and the general administration of the organization.

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

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