Overview

Mission

RedWood Empire Mountain Bike Alliance is a nonprofit corporation organized andoperated exclusively for charitable purposes, specifically to advocate for mountain biking in the Redwood Empire (Sonoma, Napa. Mendocino, Marin, and Lake Counties) byincreasing and maintaining access to public lands, maintaining and developing trails, and organizing the mountain bike community.

What it reported doing in 2020

Trail maintenance projects on current trials networks in existing State and County parks such as Annadel State Park, Jenner Headlands, and Austin Creek will be one of the first projects for REMBA. Planning, fundraising, and building of pump tracks (small bike track that is geared towards skill development and fitness of young kids and adults not familiar with mountain biking and its necessary fitness level) and bike parks (larger version ofthe pump track, geared towards more skilled bike enthusiasts) will also be a highly important part of REMBA.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
