Overview

Mission

We are a labor union that represents public school teachers in the Cambridge-Isanti school district.

What it reported doing in 2024

As a union we were able to engage and support our staff so that they were felt supported in their roles as educators. This was done by creating events after school to addressing benefits (health or retirement related), by holding teacher appreciation events and by negotating for improvements to their salaries and benefits.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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

MIXED - 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.
