Overview

Mission

Support and promote the growth and continued vitality of shooting sports in the state of Nebraska through development and maintenance of shooting parks, programs, and events, which will provide educational and practical shooting experiences for future generations, as well as, through a commitment to programs that encourage youth to engage in outdoor activities and strengthen relationships, both in the family and community.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 69% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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 program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
