Overview

Mission

Arts 4 Impact is a Charitable organization. Our mission includes using various forms of art (usually produced as public works and/or events) to advance education, lessen neighborhood tensions (as well as prejudice and discrimination), and to defend human and civil rights.

What it reported doing in 2024

The Chinese Planning Council of NYC held a voter awareness campaign and event. Arts 4 Impact's grant allowed us to design and print the signage, secure materials to create an artistic expression, and get to NYC to lead many of their members in the assembly of it and community interactions during the event.

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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
