Overview
Mission
The Coalition for a Safe and Regulated Internet, Inc. (CFSRI) was organized with a clear mission: To promote the benefits of legalizing and regulating online gaming for the common good of adult residents in individual states. We believe that state regulation of internet gaming will establish strong consumer protections that ensure games are fair for all participants and that prohibit minors, while striking a blow against black market operators. Internet gaming can also help individual states across the country to generate much-needed revenue for key programs and services, as well as create jobs. Our organization intends to educate state legislators, opinion leaders and the general public about the merits of internet gaming via broadcast and cable television advertising, as well as targeted direct mail, radio, digital and print advertising
What it reported doing in 2016
Pennsylvania Internet Gaming Legislation (on going). Our organization has spent most of this past year doing policy research and messaging development to educate the people of Pennsylvania about the benefits of regulated and licensed internet gaming in their state. We have developed a strategy. We are in fund raising mode to pay for our program.
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. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
