Registered Jan 1990 · Treasurer: Brenda Brewster · Nashville, TN
Where the Money Goes
Of the $1,079,878 this committee reported spending, the largest share — $470,718 (44%) — went to operating costs and overhead.
Why this number?
Operating share of spending compares operating spending with total spent.
