Overview

Mission

To provide support for one or more qualified organizations whose purpose is to be operated to promote and foster direct marketing educational activities in the greater Kansas city metropolitan area.

Operating model

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
