Overview

Mission

The primary purpose of the Association is to support the rendering of assistance and/or emergency care to medical and trauma patients on Islesboro Island and to support transport of such persons, if necessary, to the mainland for medical treatment using the ambulances of the Islesboro Ambulance Service. To that end, the Association funds ambulance equipment and EMT and driver training.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, the Association through our donations received made a series of down payments on an ambulance Load Management System with the balance to be paid in 2026. We also funded EMT training, ambulance driver training and supplies for our ambulances.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

MIXED - 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.
