Remaining funds were contributed to support other King County ballot measures, Building Behavioral Health and Yes for Vets & Seniors, to fund mental health support in King County and support for veterans and senior citizens in King County, respectively.

Operating model

Revenue model
Investment-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from recurring investment income.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

REVIEW - 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.
