Overview

Mission

Southside supports development of creative spaces and the curation and production of events within them.

What it reported doing in 2024

Southside Revival supported the development of Ramova Theatre. While there were no direct costs associated this was the primary focus.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 100% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
