Overview
Mission
Making the public aware of the organization's existence and promoting wildfowl arts show. To also serve as a venue for m.c. Conservation stamp competition.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Investment-supported. 84% of the money available for current operations came from recurring investment income.

- 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 total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
