Overview
Mission
Teach Choral singing and performance skills to youth.
What it reported doing in 2024
The NABGC enrolled 17 members from the East Harlem community to participate in its choral music program for the 2024 - 2025 season. The curriculum included music theory, sight singing, and choir. The choir gave 12 performances in local and out-of-town venues. Members learned to appreciate other cultures through the various songs and trips. They learned how to present themselves on stage and how to interact with audience members after performances.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 96% 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
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
