What The Glendale Youth Orchestra does
Mission
The mission of The Glendale Youth Orchestra is to provide qualified young musicians an environment in which to explore, comprehend, appreciate and develop a lasting interest in music in a quality setting.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
The Glendale Youth Orchestra performs concerts of standard symphonic music. They interact with students who share their interest in music, learn the value of achievement, teamwork and discipline.

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. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $2k to $27k (+1109%).
How it's funded, over time

58% of THE GLENDALE YOUTH ORCHESTRA’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (78% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
