Overview

Mission

Promote bear hunting with hounds

What it reported doing in 2024

Travel to conferences and meetings was paid to educate members on wildlife issues and to further learn about public concerns regarding bear hunting. A banquet was held to raise money for our donations. We have an inventory of items to be used for our raffle at the next banquet. We also provide scholarships to youth who are interested in conservation and bear hunting.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 100% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 83% 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 revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
