Overview

Mission

Provide recognition and enhance prestage of U.S. Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance community.

What it reported doing in 2025

Symposium - annual event to promote US Navy Patrol and Reconnaissance community and educate members and general public of latest development and accomplishment in patrol and reconnaissance aviation.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 65% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
