Overview

Mission

To establish and maintain a dance company organized to create a wider appreciation in the community for Street Dance and Hip Hop Culture as an influential artform and an accessible form of entertainment by producing performances and workshops.

What it reported doing in 2025

MRDC produced 3 events for Chicago Park District's Night Out in the Parks performances. We performed at 3 parks across the city of Chicago, serving 3 neighborhoods and welcomed over 400 audience members total to our shows. There were a total of 12 artists participating in these events.

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 total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filed totals do not add up.
