The conference was attended by 113 people in-person and 122 online. Important and strategic collaborations for this conference included the Davis-Phinney Foundation. Presented 53 movement classes in 2024 attended by 10-12 people each session. Engaged in a fiscal sponsorship with a documentary film project entitled Hadleys Story: The Passion to Persist. This film is about an extraordinary artist who, despite daunting health challenges, exemplifies the power of the human spirit. Summit for Parkinsons will receive a percentage of the films proceeds. Hosted an in-person and remote workshop for Parkinson's Support Group Coordinators across the State to determine their needs and how Summit can help meet them.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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 a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
