Overview

Mission

To provide additional financial and volunteer support for the John Hersey High School choir education program for over 80 students by helping to provide additional educational and performance opportunities above and beyond those which could be offered without this additional funding.

What it reported doing in 2024

Successfully engaged choir students in various choir groupings for performances and activities related to choir during the year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 61% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
