Overview

Mission

Prevention of war, and the social and economic injustices which lead to war, by educating our community about the issues and encouraging citizen activism.

What it reported doing in 2025

General program - our weekly newsletter goes to about 5000 persons per week, (our members and others who have expressed interest). It contains announcements of events we are sponsoring, co-sponsoring, or endorsing, as well as announcements of related events, opportunities for action including rallies, marches, and signing petitions. It also features a section with current articles from a range of media on ukraine, russia, israel, palestine, the middle east, and from the united states. We sponsored one community meeting for which 85 people registered. We participated in one all-day street fair which offered information as well as the opportunity to participate in our "penny poll" by "voting" for where tax dollars should be spent. We also organized our members to participate in local rallies and marches to support civil rights and social programs.

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 96% 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

SUPPORTED - 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.
