Overview

Mission

Advance diversity in the wine industry by attracting global attention to Oregon's aapi winemaking and culinary talent, empower the aapi individuals that make the state diverse and delicious, educate the public with non-traditional food and wine pairings, and support community organizations that promote diversity in the food and wine industry and beyond.

What it reported doing in 2023

Oregon aapi food + wine fest was founded in 2023 with the mission to celebrate the diverse wine and culinary scene that makes the pacific northwest, particularly Oregon, so unique. The first annual event of its kind (with the goals of uplifting aapi food and wine businesses, promoting diversity and educating the public regarding non-traditional food and wine pairings) featured five trailblazing aapi owned wineries and ten acclaimed aapi portland chefs over two days.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 63% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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 a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
