While the IRS is way behind on posing 990s, their 2017 to 2019 forms show revenue where I could see them bringing in that amount. They were doing from 3m-7m revenue a year. Charity Navigator gave them 4 stars, so they think the salaries and ages for 130+ employees (2m) are appropriate for their income (remember, some of the salaried folks are doing the work of the organization so much of it could be called a program expense).Phoenix520 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 5:36 pm $12m, according to the article.
Northland will know if it’s a ridiculous sum to spend for it.
Is that a big ratio, N10?
The expenses for a couple of events held in 2019 seem rather high for the revenue, which gives me pause. I don't know if they were at a Trump property.
Here's the thing. It is not really about the financials of the organization, which Charity Navigator seems fine with. The issue is potential self-dealing. If Lara Trump is in a position of control with the organization, such as a volunteer chair, and can control where they have expenses, and Eric is getting a benefit from the event through his involvement or ownership stake in the Trump Organization, that could be a problem.
