Overview

Mission

Projectivity has provided resources to musicians and artists that had similar audiences and messages - mainly creating positive conscious content. The word Projectivity was given the meaning of coming together to project our passions. The concept has always been to help others spread positive messages through the arts and also develop sustainable careers by supporting each other in the arts. What began as a small DIY record label in 2005 slowly evolved into a full-scale arts COLLECTIVE eventually taking the shape of an officially registered 501c3 not-for-profit organization in the Fall of 2015. Headquartered in Staten Island the group currently serves the whole New York City tri-state area but has hosted workshops and events throughout the country. Our sole mission is to offer education resources and opportunities to everyone interested in pursuing media and the arts.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 81% 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. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
