Overview
Mission
To promote the hobby of collecting antique, vintage and contemporary marbles and marble related items. To teach children how to play the game of marbles including how to demonstrate good sportsmanship, character, and camaraderie. To perserve, archive, and document the history of toy marbles and to distribute the knowledge and information gained by holding regular marble shows, conventions, club meetings, and through the publishing of books, articles, and other learning materials.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 100% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
