Overview
Mission
Promoting the sale of Washington grown potatoes and onions
The Washington Potato & Onion Association (WPOA) is the only association in Washington State that represents potato and onion shippers. It serves as a resource for packing sheds, providing tools, resources, workshops, political action, and networking events to help them succeed in agriculture. WPOA is involved in labor issues, international trade, and legislative advocacy on behalf of its members, and hosts an annual summer convention with guest speakers on topics impacting the industry.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 68% 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
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and expenses are high relative to revenue.
