Overview

Mission

To serve all of the residents of linn and chariton counties (Missouri) as a place to hold wedding receptions, dances, banquets, youth activities, and other civic functions that require a large room for the event.

What it reported doing in 2025

The walsworth community center has consistently achieved its exempt purpose, which is the operation of a community center that can be used by the general public from the surrounding area for various business, civic, and private functions that require a large venue.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 68% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
