Overview

Mission

The United Nations Association of Minnesota promotes the activities and principles of the United Nations in the state of Minnesota.

What it reported doing in 2025

The second most significant program we conduct are various advocacy activities to promote the United Nations and its activities to state and Congressional representatives, along with the general public. in 2025 they included having at least 3 volunteers attending a nationwide UN Advocacy Training Program, 24 people signing and promoting a UN sponsored Human Rights Petition, speaking to an open meeting of the public and the Minneapolis Uptown Rotary Club about the UN High Seas Treaty, 20 phone calls, 15 letters and 6 meetings with state representatives, along with the 2 Minnesota U.S. senators and 4 MN Congressmen, and got an article published about Human Rights and Democracy in a stateside news organization. Total volunteer man hours at least 200 and total people involved at least 100.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 70% 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

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 reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
