Overview
Mission
The Inchelium Cultural Research Center is an accessible, welcoming archive and library and a space for sharing and dialogue. It provides community members with an opportunity to store and contribute to the shared cultural record of our homeland and fosters meaningful connections between our community and the history of Indigenous groups in and around Inchelium. The Inchelium Cultural Research Center runs on three, overarching goals: Records Collection and Access: maintain over 15 community-based archival collections and are working to rehouse them following archival standard preservation methods, digitize where possible, and digitally catalog the records. Cultural Protection, Preservation, and Continuity: ICRC works with elders and youth to create and preserve - largely through crafting, digitization, research, and writing. Community Engagement: the ICRC holds at least one public program annually, from local author book readings to local history seminars and arts class.
What it reported doing in 2024
Archival research and access - the majority of administrative funds go toward developing suitable space for archival collections and making them accessible onsite and online. From general supplies to staff wages, database subscriptions costs, to printing and copying. Listing expenses amount at 50% of general administrative expenses
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
