Overview

Mission

To provide a source of camaraderie and support for individuals, regardless of sexual orientation, who are interested in alternative lifestyles. To educate, inform, and update group members, interested individuals, and when appropriate, the public at large, on the latest information concerning the lifestyle through seminars, workshops, discussions and group activities.

What it reported doing in 2023

Approximately 54 social and recreational activities were held promoting the practices of safe, sane, and consensual power-exchange activities and polyamory. Twice monthly educational talks and demonstrations were produced concerning various aspects of power-exchange and polyamorous relationships. Stl3 also has leased an event space in south saint louis city that we call the gateway alternative lifestyle center (galc). The space is open to members and guests for educational and social events. Members can also rent the space for their own smaller social groups to have their own events. Typically there are educational events at least 2-4 times a month and social events 1-2 times each week.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
