Overview
Mission
Our mission is to guide the development of proposed Sister City relationships, thereby strengthening their missions in the areas of cultural, educational, economic, and humanitarian relationships.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Cervantes Festival in Balboa Park brings together students, instructors, and community members to read excerpts from Don Quijote de la Mancha and celebrate our sister citys native son, Miguel de Cervantes. Leading up to the event, our society visits local classrooms and invites students to contribute artwork for the Festival poster. The community then joins us for a day of Spanish music, dance, and food in celebration of Alcal and Spanish culture.
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
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.
