Overview
Mission
The mission of the Downtown Business Association is to promote and advocate on behalf of our membership for a vibrant and sustainable downtown Juneau Alaska.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Downtown Business Association promotes the downtown business district through organizing and hosting events such as the Gallery Walk and providing ongoing services such as downtown street lighting during winter months.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- 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
MIXED - 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.
