Overview

Mission

To support education, advocacy, and collaboration among otolaryngologists to promote the highest quality of patient care.

What it reported doing in 2025

Successfully engaged all of the otolaryngology residents in the state by offering complimentary FSO membership and providing a resident track at the state meeting. Largest annual state meeting on record held in Naples Nov 11-14, 2025. Started a Women in Medicine Education Program.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and expenses are high relative to revenue.
