Overview

Mission

To provide support for the friendswood high school band program and its members

What it reported doing in 2025

Band supplies and uniforms - provide supplies to band members that school districts did not fund to give necessary equipment to allow band improvement. Approximately 200 band members benefited.

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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
