Overview

Mission

The association is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes within the meaning of section 501(c)6 of the internal revenue code of 1986 and corresponding to provisions of any future federal law. Such purposes include but are not limited to a forum for the cultivation of relationships between wireless telecommunications professionals and to create a unified platform for issues relating to the telecommunications industry.

What it reported doing in 2022

Each year the organization offers a free educational seminar for professionals within the telecommunications industry. For the last several years the organization had been able to make donations to other charitable organzations in an effort to improve the surrounding communities

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 100% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
