Overview

Mission

Advancement of Education or Science

The Center for Post Carbon Logistics advocates, educates and engineers for the revival of resilient short sea shipping in the United States. This is being achieved through participating in conferences and symposia, designing systems for future deployment, research, and market development.

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. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
