Overview

Mission

Engineers week - new england, inc. (ewne) works to increase the awareness of the engineering profession, honor current engineers for their commitment to the profession and provide information and resources to students at both k-12 and higher education levels.

What it reported doing in 2014

Annual luncheon & career night: holds an annual event to recognize middle school and high school students with awards for their work on engineering related projects and honors an individual who has promoted or supported the engineering community. Also holds an event for students who are graduating or recently graduated with their bachelors degree in engineering. This is a chance for them to learn about the industry and expand their network.

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 88% 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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
