Overview

Mission

The Primary exempt purpose of the Nevada Professional Engineers Foundation, Inc. is: 1. The granting of scholarships, providing guidance, and by other means assisting worthy students to obtain instruction and training in engineering and higher education. 2. The instruction of public and dissemination of engineering information beneficial to the interested public. 3. The conduct and support of programs for education in mathematics, engineering and scientific subjects.

What it reported doing in 2024

Order of the Engineer: The Order of the Engineer (order-of-the-engineer.org) is not a membership organization, but is designed, "...to foster a spirit of pride and responsibility in the engineering profession, to bridge the gap between training and experience, and to present to the public a visible symbol identifying the engineer."

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 69% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 69% for direct work, and 31% for grants.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
