Overview

Mission

Ambulance service

What it reported doing in 2025

The purpose of townville ambulance service shall be primarily the emergency and non-emergency care and transportation of people in the designated area or travelers in our service area, and related services, and other purposes not inconsistent with Pennsylvania non-profit corporation law and section 501 of the internal revenue code. Other services or training programs may be carried out at the discretion of the board of directors.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 90% 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 some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
