A bit of concern after you posted that the corps has debt, and no emergency fund.  Your attempts to reassure are backfiring.  But that does not dampen my hopes for a successful 2018 and future for the corps (plural).

Due to current circumstances, they may have the best de facto emergency fund ever.  Of course if there are lawsuits it could still be outpaced by actual emergencies.

I'm not a lawyer, but it looks like their net assets are around 400k with 500k of that being equipment.

Holy crap, GH took a $176k salary from YEA! in 2016?????  At least that's what the 990 says.

The initial Inquirer article about the allegations listed a similar figure.

That's on the high side for a non-profit of YEA's overall budget size, in my opinion, but not out of bounds.

Hmm. Checking that 990, I see YEA's budget is smaller than I thought. Just $5.5 million? So that does make $176,000 seem pretty high, at least relative to some arts organizations around here, even after factoring in the cost-of-living difference between cities.

well in recent days, many estranged alumni have opened their wallets in ways the corps hasn't seen in decades

Could you please elaborate on what exactly "de facto emergency fund" means.

Not really... there are several folks running similar sized non-profits making north of that (with all required reporting items). It may be high from DCI corps (or not) but not many have the diversity of programs they are running at YEA.
