Overview

Mission

The Farmstead Swim Team seeks to foster an environment where swimmers gain a sense of accomplishment and develop sportsmanship and their competitive abilities.

What it reported doing in 2012

The Farmstead Swim Team has a team of over 100 children competing in multiple swim meets and events over the summer. The focus is on every swimmer improving over the summer and all are given the opportunity to participate in each event.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 60% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
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 - 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 expenses are high relative to revenue.
