What The Yappie Inc does
Mission
The Yappie aims to educate the public and promote civic engagement through the production of nonpartisan policy content about the news and issues that affect Asian America, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Program
The Yappie, Inc. is a Delaware nonprofit corporation that operates as an online news service designed to serve AANHPI communities across the U.S. The Yappies content is produced by an editorial team consisting of 9 active editors and writers, all of whom are students or recent college graduates with journalism backgrounds. The corporations founders, Board of Directors, and officers have also worked at prominent news outlets (e.g., Politico, Axios), AANHPI advocacy groups (e.g., OCA-Asian Pacific American Advocates), think tanks (e.g., Council on Foreign Relations, CSIS), and various government bodies. The Yappies newsroom produces three categories of content: newsletter briefings, hard news stories, and feature-length articles. Newsletter briefings collate and analyze recent policy developments affecting AANHPI communities. Hard news stories cover events with major policy implications for AANHPIs and are normally published in the immediate aftermath of said events. Lastly, feature-length articles are in-depth examinations of larger, longer-term policy issues relevant to AANHPI communitiesespecially those that have yet to receive significant attention. 2024 remained an active year…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2022, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2022, 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 and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $123k to $91k (−26%).
How it's funded, over time
