Overview
Mission
The Greater Columbia Obedience Club, Inc. (GCOC) promotes the sport of dog obedience. GCOC is an all-volunteer organization made of up local dog sport enthusiasts. The Club is sanctioned by the American Kennel Club (AKC) to hold obedience, rally, agility trials and coursing test in the area. We hold several trials and tests each year. Part of our mission includes public education about training and competition dog sports. We subscribe to the theory that a trained dog is a happy dog. The Club encourages and promotes positive reinforcement and reward-based training methods. All activities are conducted within the Columbia, SC community by our members and volunteers from the community. Activitiesare funded from organization membership fees, donations, and event admission for various shows, seminars and other activities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Liabilities are high compared with assets.
