Overview

Mission

New Voices New Orleans engages singers in the city's public schools in dynamic performances that unlock creativity, embolden self-expression, and empower civic voice.

What it reported doing in 2024

As a new organization, we simply have one program that we run at various schools. In it's first full fiscal year, New Voices New Orleans served 169 singers across four public charter schools. This season was entitled "Routes", and in two major concert cycles (Fall 2024's Heart Song", and Spring 2025's "Here We Come") singers explored "where we've been and where we're going."

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 94% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
