Tax year 2024

A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.

How each $100 of revenue was used

The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.

Total reported revenue$459,051
Mission workProgram services$438,09695.44% of revenue65.5% of expenses
ManagementOffice and general costs$187,83440.92% of revenue28.1% of expenses
FundraisingAsking for donations$43,1849.41% of revenue6.5% of expenses
Total expenses$669,114145.76% of revenue

Expenses were greater than revenue, so the colored ring fills the available $100 and the total above 100% is shown below.

Has the pattern changed?

Colored bars = expense mix: how each year’s expenses were divided. Total expenses vs. revenue shows whether the charity spent less or more than it received. The current filing is first.
