Overview

Mission

Cultural heritage and social events for those with an interest in Nordic traditions.

What it reported doing in 2025

To promote and preserve the heritage and culture of Norway and to celebrate our relationship with other Nordic countries. This includes the preservation of Norwegian heritage and culture in our society.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 79% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
