Overview
Mission
Quarterly community newsmagazine publication
What it reported doing in 2024
Produced and published a free quarterly community newsmagazine to 11,500 mailboxes throughout the applegate valley and 1,500 copies to local store fronts. Articles are all solicited from community authors. #1,300 momentum grant was provided by "a greater applegate" towards postage of the publication.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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.
