Financial health

We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $43,986 spent. In our Fiscal year ending September 30, 2025, we served 68 distinct individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds, including: low-income youth, disabled individuals, and older adults. In total, we provided 61 classes and workshops. Our class formats were: Chair Yoga Dance, Yoga Dance Flow, and Dance for Special Needs and Disabilities. We collaborated with one outside organization: Center for Family Support, which serves developmentally disabled adults. 100% of our classes were subsidized by grants and donations we received so that we could be open and accessible to all. Thus, we were able to implement a "pay-what-you-can" payment structures, so people could enroll in our programs regardless of their personal financial situation. And in some cases, we were able to offer "free" programming due to project grants we received. Our students ranged in age from 16 to 70+, including: at least 40 disabled persons and 24 older adults. We held three gatherings which featured our disabled / special needs individuals and older adults displaying their dance skills and choreography in front of friends, family, and KMA supporters. It was wonderful to create movement art as community, and the joy at our events was palpable.
