Overview

Mission

Scholarships and promotion of theater education

What it reported doing in 2024

We host theater festivals for middle-school and high-school theater festivals (3 festivals, involving app. 3500 students total), at which students perform scenes for judges and receive feedback. Expenses for these festivals include judge stipends, teacher meetings for planning purposes, website, and online handbook.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 88% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 94% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
