Overview

Mission

Art and cultural youth services

What it reported doing in 2022

Workshop and event instructor stipends - MYP hosts a variety of art and cultural workshops, art shows, murals in the community and at youth correctional facilities. Special guest artists are invited to mentor and instruct.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
