Overview

Mission

The Community Center is a welcoming space for LGBTQIA+ and allied organizations and individuals in the Treasure Valley. We help queer folks find belonging and community by providing fun and meaningful events and support groups at our facility and beyond. And we help inform folks about other local LGBTQIA+ events and resources, run a queer lending library with over 3,700 titles, and run a food pantry for community members experiencing food insecurity.

What it reported doing in 2025

Provide local resource lists, activities and events for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 91% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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 revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work.
