Overview
Mission
The specific purposes of this corporation are the production and promotion of educational and civic based programs and charitable activities including the promotion of diversity, supporting community assets, and combating of community deterioration.
What it reported doing in 2024
Operational support for the educational programs of esaba including three top priorities - arcade and e7th street resiliency outreach with businesses impacted by construction, purple line engagement along white bear ave, and anit-displacement strategies. Esaba worked with funds for our members involved in these three areas including coalition funds for purple people and the east side community investment cooperative (escic). Funds supported esaba's programs like the mayor's budget workshop, and esaba coffee break, and outreach for the mitigation fund we secured from the state of Minnesota. We also successfully acquired grant funding through the foundation to support esaba to expand capacity to serve more businesses, connecting them to resources like the mitigation fund and promotional activities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 99% 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
