Overview
Mission
Arts-based healthcare programs for caregivers and care recipients.
What it reported doing in 2010
Companion Arts provides professional healthcare workers, family caregivers and care recipients with arts-based website resources, publications, and audio resources that inspire and relieve stress. In 2010 CA utilized funds to develop new programs for family caregivers and a new audio resource, "Care For the Journey - the Leadership Edition" for professional healthcare workers. Approximately 15,000 people were directly served by CA's programs, website resources or audio resources.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 62% 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
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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
