What Carson City Symphony Association Incorporated does
Mission
We perform several public concerts with orchestra and other performing ensembles, including the Chamber Singers, Consort Canzona and our youth groups. We perform in Carson City, NV and surrounding areas.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
We are a symphony orchestra and related choral and other music entities, with which we provide live concerts for the public. We also provide youth instruction using our own musicians as unpaid instructors. We give grants and allocations to deserving youth up to age 17 to afford the recipients, usually three per year, to pursue their musical studies. We do these accomplishments as a whole, in a way which makes it difficult to specifically allocate a given expense line item to a specific recipient. Accordingly, we consider all of our expense to be allocable throughout our spectrum of services to our community

The program described on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ. Program spending in total: $46,935.
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 2024 to 2025, from $140k to $94k (−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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $7k → $74.
1 of 5 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 4% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
70% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund CARSON CITY SYMPHONY ASSOCIATION INCORPORATED.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 100% · 2018 100% · 2020 74% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $403 arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
