Overview
Mission
The performance, preservation, teaching, enjoyment, and continuing evolution of traditional English ritual dance, music, and song. This purpose is achieved by the organizing of an annual event known as the "Marlboro Morris Ale".
What it reported doing in 2024
We hosted our annual Ale weekend May 24-27, 2024. A total of 290 adult and children participated in street performances for the public in Brattleboro, VT on Saturday May 25 and throughout Windham County, VT on Sunday May 26.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
