Overview

Mission

To unite fraternally for the mutual benefit, protection, improvement and social enjoyment for members by people helping people and to support various charities

What it reported doing in 2023

Activities to promote social enjoyment for 250 members: lounge & resturant facilites and activities: dinners/lunches/bar, live entertainment, and games (pool table, dart, pull tabs, and vairous games)

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 program-spending lines do not add up, so the filing cannot show reliably whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
