Overview

Mission

The mission of the colima pasco collaboration and friendship association is to foster economic development and a positive relationship between the city of pasco in Washington state and the state of colima in mexico. Thousands of pasco's residents have ties to colima and the surrounding region and dignitaries participate in visits.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, the Colima Pasco Collaboration and Friendship Association interfaced with local community organizations and hosted the Universidad Pedagogica Nacional Unidad 061 (UPN) Delegation in Pasco, Washington. This tour included discussions of arts and culture; economic development and trade; education; and health and wellness. Other activities in 2025 included a relationship with a regional tribe developing a major facility in the Pasco area. COPA also provided public outreach about the organization at the regional county fair and other community events.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
