Overview
Mission
Coordinate state elks lodge activities
What it reported doing in 2020
Annual state convention to discuss fraternal charitable and patriotic programs sponsored by the national elks organization.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 61% 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
