Overview
Mission
To promote and advance the art of flute playing through music education, performance opportunities, competitions, scholarships, and community programs for flutists of all ages and skill levels.
What it reported doing in 2025
High School Scholarship Competition - The High School Scholarship Competition awards scholarships to graduating high school flutists in Utah. Every entrant submits a recorded preliminary round, and selected finalists perform in a public recital where the winners are announced. Scholarship awards are as follows: $1,000 - First place, $750 - Second place, $500 - Third place, $100 - Honorable mention. Typically 10-15 High School seniors apply for this competition annually.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 78% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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 available resources goes toward mission work. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
