Overview

Mission

Electorate through political education and participation

What it reported doing in 2025

Free Community Picnic This event was a free community picnic open to the public. Members donated food and drinks. Activities were available for the young and old. Our guest speaker was from the Hillsdale County Historical Society. She spoke about the history of the area and Baw Beese Lake. There were other bigger events happening during this time. Participation from the community brought in less than 10 to 15 people. This event turned out to be a disappointment. The group decided not to have another picnic in the future. Time was invested by the members and to have a very low turn out is disappointing.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
