What it reported doing in 2025

Strategic Priorities: Initiatives and projects that receive dedicated organizational investment and are aligned with the Society's strategic plan. These activities represent targeted efforts to advance mission-driven goals, expand impact, and support long-term organizational priorities beyond routine operations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 66% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 97% 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. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
