Overview
Mission
Facilitate lively political debate, networking and information for those who want to get involved in local, regional or state politics.
What it reported doing in 2024
A gathering in Washington state for engaging in open dialogue on political issues, and no-barriers networking among elected officials, prominent political thinkers, college students and grassroots activists. Participants come from a diverse set of backgrounds: elected officials including statewide, federal, legislative and local officeholders, campaign professionals, representatives from policy groups and think tanks, industry professionals, and grassroots activists old and young. Our retreats offer a congenial and social setting for renewing solidarity and christening new connections.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- 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.
