Overview

Mission

The corporation is organized, and shall at all times be operated, exclusively to promote social welfare within the meaning of code section 501(c)(4), including, but not limited to, engaging in communications and other activities to make the general public aware of the public policy positions of certain public officials related to the american democratic process so that members of the general public can make informed decisions about their civic engagement.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
