Overview
Mission
A social club whose members work to improve the quality of long island beaches for the enjoyment of future generations, through beach grass restoration, piping plover protection, and promoting beach access.
What it reported doing in 2020
To restore the beach front and protect against future erosion while educating the public. Education is provided through scholarships awarded to local students studying marine biology.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 96% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 89% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
