Overview

Mission

Educating the general public regarding the cultural interdependence between cultures largely dependent upon natural resource management and cultures dependent upon the consumption of products derived from such natural resource management.

What it reported doing in 2017

During 2016, the provider pals cultural exchange program included over 3,300 students in classroom in cities across the united states. The cities with provider pals programming include los angeles, Washington, dc (3 schools), minneapolis-st paul , worthington, mn, wolcott, in libby mt, pinedaly, wy, buckeye, az and others. Farmers, ranchers, miners, loggers, and fisherman from rural areas throughout the nation were adopted by and visited the provider pals schoolchildren in the classroom. Provider pals operates a virtual village that includes educationally based interactive learning on-line in full compliance with the child on-line protection requirements. All students involved in the program are sponsored to one year membership to this unique learning site. In 2017 the program was discontinued, all fixed assets were sold and ceased operations.

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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
