Overview

Mission

St. Paul central music boosters supports our young musicians and music teachers by providing items such as instrument purchases and repairs, private lesson scholarships, music trip scholarships, section coaches and master classes, and new music rights.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
