Overview

Mission

To promote commerce in the south side

What it reported doing in 2024

The Chamber continued to work on railroad quiet zone and parking studies under an Allegheny County Infrastructure and Tourism grant slowed down by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 77% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
