Overview

Mission

Collective Bargaining

What it reported doing in 2025

The Local Union enforced the Collective Bargaining Agreement to Better the Working Conditions of the Local Union and Provide REpresentation to its Members

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and expenses are high relative to revenue.
