What it reported doing in 2024
In 1994, the first USRA May Event took place. The USRA May Event is a unique three day event bringing all aspects of the Footwear Industry to one place to find ways we can grow the industry while helping each of our businesses thrive TOGETHER. It was the first of its kind in the Footwear Industry. Many have tried to replicate the May Event, but no one has even come close. The USRA May Event has truly become an Industry Production and has grown into the biggest and BEST Networking Event you can attend.The USRA UPS discount program offers substantially higher discounts that any other trade association, buying group or co-op offer in the retail industry.
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 revenue has declined or grown slowly.
