Overview

Mission

Cardinal Elementary Sports Association is a non profit that is aimed at providing youth sports opportunities to the communities of the Langdon Area Munich Co-Op including football, basketball, and volleyball for 4th, 5th, and 6th grade boys and girls.

What it reported doing in 2025

This Association provided the opportunity for businesses and individuals to donate and allow kids of the Langdon Area Munich Co-Op participate in Elementary Sports. The Langdon Area School District no longer runs those programs, so this Association was created to fill that void. The Cardinal Elementary Sports Association provided the opportunity for 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students to play Football, Basketball, and Volleyball.

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

SUPPORTED - 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.
