Overview

Mission

Trade association

What it reported doing in 2024

Trade association representing members of architectural woodworkers, suppliers, design professionals and students in the chicago area.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 82% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and assets have declined or grown slowly.
