What National Snaffle Bit Association Inc does
Mission
The mission of the National Snaffle Bit Association, Inc. is to grow the show horse community through various equine program and events where every activity benefits horses, breeders, owners and exhibitors alike.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
NSBA World Championship Show - NSBAs capstone event that promotes and celebrates NSBA members and their achievements, drives membership and participation at shows throughout the year.

BCF nominated horses are also allowed to participate in the NSBAs BCF Yearling Sale held each year in conjunction with the NSBA World Championship Show and Breeders Championship Futurity.

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 2020 to 2021, from $3.8M to $5.3M (+41%).
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: 2020 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 0 of the last 8 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.
