Overview
Mission
Provide financial support of the Lane Tech High School baseball program.
What it reported doing in 2025
The role of the Lane Tech Baseball Booster Club is to raise money for the Lane Tech High School baseball program through player fees and contributions. Fees and contributions received are used to pay coaches, purchase equipment, purchase uniforms, pay for off-season training, and pay for the use of training facilities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 87% 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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
