The summer residency program- in the summer, we provided housing and mentorship to individual writers, scholars, and artists who stayed at the sue-je lee gage residency for varying short-terms stays (1 week to 1 month) while working on projects devoted to issues of social justice and human rights. The housing and mentorship was supplied free of charge. Residents were selected via a competitive application process.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 77% 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
