Overview

Mission

Whether you are looking for personal renewal or to reinvigorate your organization, Roslyn provides the perfect place to retreat.

What it reported doing in 2024

Residential conferences, retreats and seminars, day-only meetings and picnics for more than 400 churches, non-profit organizations, and government agencies.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 78% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
