Overview
Mission
Provide fire protection and emergency non-medical services to the Big Indian-Oliverea Fire District
What it reported doing in 2024
The Company is in the process of building a safer Firehouse to house the Districts apparatus and equipment and to better serve the public. Company volunteers have donated hundreds of hour in preparing the adjoining site negotiating contracts working on municipal and state government compliance and coordinating with the building contractors. During 2024 the Company spent more than $152,000 of its own money on labor and materials; the State through a competitive grant reimbursed approximately $67,000 during 2024.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 85% 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
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 liabilities are high compared with assets.
