Overview
Mission
Labor organization
What it reported doing in 2025
We are a 501(c)(5), Labor Organization. Our three largest program services, as measured by expenses, are: reimbursing travel for members to attend Union business and training; operations expenses; and donations/gifts, which includes donations to the NATCA Charitable Foundation, condolence gifts to members and their family, and purchasing Union Local specific apparel (e.g. t-shirts and polo shirts) for the membership. Also significant are reimbursements for special events, such as General Membership and Executive Board meetings, member appreciation events, and solidarity events.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% 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. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
