How the money works
From the Form 990 for the calendar year 2025 (Jan 2025 – Dec 2025) — read the filing ↗.
Where the money came from
Total revenue $584K
- Contributions & grants$520K89%
- Program service revenueFees, tuition and other payments for services$56K10%
- Interest & dividends$5K<1%
- Gains or losses on investments sold$5K<1%
- Other revenueNet income from fundraising events, rent, royalties and miscellaneous income−$1K−<1%
Other revenue is net of a $1K loss on fundraising events: the events' direct costs exceeded what the Form 990 counts as event revenue. (Gifts made at events are counted under contributions.)
A loss reduces total revenue, so the other shares add up to more than 100%.
How it was spent, by purpose
Total expenses $636K
- Program services$522K82%
- Management & general$74K12%
- Fundraising$40K6%
- Salaries & officer compensation
- $318K · 50% of expenses
The three purposes above add up to total expenses. Pay is a different way of slicing the same spending — it falls within those purposes — so it's listed separately, not added on.
Percentages are shares of the total reported on the Form 990, not of the lines shown. Figures are as filed, rounded for display.
