Overview
Mission
The Music Boosters is a public charity whose mission is to provide support and enrichment to all music students participating in Stoney Creek High School music programs. We support their education and experiences by purchasing materials, uniforms, music, equipment, instruments, instructions, clinicians, and travel to music camps.
What it reported doing in 2024
The Music Boosters' second largest program was our support of the Stoney Creek High School Jazz Band. We provided a clinician, sent the musicians on an intensive weekend retreat to prepare for the season, sent them to a regional jazz festival where they received sophisticated feedback on their performance and witness other performances, and together with the other schools in our district, hosted a "Tri-High" jazz festival in a neighboring city. This neighboring city is struggling economically, and by performing in their revitalized downtown area, we helped bring attention and spending to this city. There were approximately 45 students.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 85% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 95% 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 a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and assets have declined or grown slowly.
