Overview
Mission
Organize community, education, and preservation surrounding the apple ii line of computers
What it reported doing in 2025
Kansasfest organized its 37th annual apple ii convention gathering about 180 users, programmers, hobbyists, enthusiasts, and archivists to share and preserve the apple ii line computers. Experts prepared 22 sessions about past and present developments, all of which are recorded and available online at no charge. Kansasfest also helped preserve historically significant software, hardware, and documentation collections.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 89% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program 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 reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
