Overview
Mission
To promote the gospel of Jesus Christ through the medium of dance and to provide high quality dance instruction and performance opportunities for students.
What it reported doing in 2025
The Macholah Ballet, Inc. continues its mission to provide Christ-centered, high quality dance instruction and performance opportunities for its student body consisting of approximately 150 students ages three through adult. This is achieved through technical dance instruction provided during regularly scheduled classes using high-standard dance curriculum, various local community performances throughout the academic year, as well as an annual dance recital program performed at the end of the academic year to demonstrate educational achievement and for the ministry, benefit, and enjoyment of the students, their families, and the local community with average annual attendance over 600.
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
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.
