Overview
Mission
Promoting social welfare by combating community deterioration.
What it reported doing in 2024
Opened the building for many community events including regular Friday morning cafes a tween rock concert an art opening for a local artist and an annual friendsgiving member event. All doubled as grassroots fundraisers so did not incur additional programmatic expense
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
