Overview

Mission

Provide affordable housing for members

What it reported doing in 2024

MOSAIC COOPERATIVE provides shared meals and food staples for its members. Shared staple food products are approved by the members and purchased by the organization. Semi-regular shared meals are prepared and shared at the house. The membership is invited to include guests at these events.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 96% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
