Overview

Mission

Preserve the arts & cultural heritage of the latino community

What it reported doing in 2024

Tierra y vida - columbus festival. The festival is typically held in july and celebrates the "day out of time" concept from the mayan calendar, which considers this day as a pause between the end of one cycle and the beginning of the next. It's seen as a day for reflection, community, and appreciation of art, life, and nature.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 84% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
