Overview

Mission

The community improvement corporation of geneva was created to advance, encourage, and promote the industrial, economic, commercial, and civic development of geneva and the territory surrounding geneva in whatever way and by such means as will improve the normal growth, employment opportunities, and stability of employment in existing industries.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
