Overview

Mission

The purpose of the corporation is to help create a museum for the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes in order to preserve artifacts and to continue to promote the culture and language of the Tribes.

What it reported doing in 2024

The Corporation was created in 2023 and began meeting in late 2023. The Board did not have time to accomplish any tasks during the year as it was just getting started.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

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 a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
