Overview

Mission

To teach taekwondo and other ancillary martial arts and physical and mental disciplines; and to transact any or all other lawful business for which coporations may be incorporated under the Rhode Island non-profit corporation act, as the same may be amended from time to time hereafter.

What it reported doing in 2010

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 68% 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 program spending has declined or grown slowly.
