Overview

Mission

We are a nonprofit student-run organization.

What it reported doing in 2025

Generated intellectual cultural and moral dialogue with over a thousand subscribers nationwide through a printed newspaper distributed on The University of Notre Dames campus and via USPS.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 90% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
No current program activity. The filing reports no program spending for the current year.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
