Overview

Mission

Educate/improve life quality

What it reported doing in 2025

All activities offered to educate and/or improve quality of life for members. Programs offered to all members include health, safety, citizenship and marketing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 62% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

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 reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
