Overview

Mission

Promoting social and intellectual intercourse among members and local communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

Revenues generated are for the benefit of local community groups, churches, and other non-profit organizations. Donations are made to individual and families and other non-profit for medical, scholarships, etc. with the exception of the Intellectually Disabled Program service revenue which goes directly to the Intellectually Disabled. All of the other program service revenue is pooled and used to support the above activities.

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
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 has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and expenses are high relative to revenue.
