Overview

Mission

To protect the association's members in time of need.

What it reported doing in 2011

Provide financial assistance with legal fees for charges incurred in relation to an incident occurring while acting in official capacity as a police officer for the 30 members of the association.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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.
