What Obo Addy Legacy Project does
Mission
Education, Cultural enrichment
As stated on its FY2018 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Obo Addy Legacy Project presented performances and educational outreach activities throughout the year. The organization served over 10,000 people mainly in Oregon and Washington. All of our programs were based on educating people about the rich cultures and musical traditions of Ghana and the connections to African-American culture.We worked through the Young Audiences and Right Brain Initiative programs to bring Ghanaian dance and drumming to school age children. We spent the year going once a week to schools throughout the region. In addition, we went to about 15 schools for assembly programs.We sent a drummer/teacher to Southwest Washington-SWCCC to conduct summer classes for children as young as four years old and as old as ten. Our artists brought African music to four other summer camps.

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 2017 to 2018, from $3k to $0 (−100%).
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. 1 of the last 2 reported years ran a deficit.
