    Expenses $528,650

  • Advanced Leadership Program - 12 young adults participated in our Advanced Leadership Program as Crew Leaders and Assistance Crew Leaders.

    Expenses $261,930

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
