The organization purchased a computer system to create safe id kits - vital information of children and family members is gathered and saved to a flash drive given to the family. The flash drive can be quickly and easily provided to law enforcement if someone is missing or lost.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 2).
Scholarships: we host a golf tournament every june to raise scholarship funds. For the year ending march 31, 2026, we provided $9,000 in scholarships.
Veterans service commission: welcome home kits provided to help veterans transition into housing. This program is administered and funded through the national association and locally executed. We donated a total of $8,854 to veteran causes.
General charity: we received $9,000 in grants from elks national foundation and $5,000 from town pump charitable foundation for warmth for winter, a kid's clothing drive. We purchased over $14,000 worth of clothing and donated it to missoula county public schools, families in transition, and family resource centers for distribution in missoula county. During the 2025 tax year, the organization purchased a computer system to create safe id kits. Vital information, such as fingerprints, height, weight, photographs, etc. Are gathered for children and family members. The information is saved to a flash drive and given to the family. The flash drive can be quickly and easily provided to law enforcement if someone is missing or lost.
The 3 programs described on its FY2025 Form 990, listed largest first by expense.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $903k to $1.2M (+33%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 10 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
