Overview
Mission
Preservation of a certified historic structure and related high school alumni association; providing scholarships to qualified high school graduates seeking to continue their eduacational path.
What it reported doing in 2024
Serving as an alumni association for graduates of sioux city central high school including sponsoring various class reunions, maintaining memorabilia, operating a volunteer gift shop, and publishing a quarterly newsletter benefitting hundreds of alumni-the organization is winding down these activities due to the reduced number of castle alumni still surviving

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