Overview

Mission

Promote the fetish community and its education

What it reported doing in 2024

The Corporation aims to develop vibrant communities and progressive leaders within the fetish community through education, art, and competition. We produce a weekend event which provides free education events, art exhibitions, and a competition to select the representatives of the community to continue this goal all year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 95% 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.
