The World Cube Association has had over 200,000 unique competitors across 158 different regions and we are not planning on slowing down anytime soon The cubing community has been growing steadily since our founding in 2004 and we want to encourage this to continue into the future by increasing the accessibility of competitions to new areas. In the future, we hope to support our community even more through collaborations and outreach to those who care about puzzles. Every two years, we sanction the competition that ultimately determines the world champion. These events require extremely careful planning by a number of volunteers, as well as a large financial commitment to reserve the venue and make necessary preparations. 333553 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 0 0 false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 4 4 false false false false false true true true true false false true true true true false true false false false CA X WORLD CUBE ASSOCIATION 8056016023 5042 WILSHIRE BLVD 43206 LOS ANGELES CA 90036 X ETHAN PRIDE CHAIR/EXE DIR 020.00 X X 0 0 0 BLAKE THOMPSON SECRETARY 020.00 X X 0 0 0 KERRIE JARMAN VICE CHAIR 020.00 X X 0 0 0 NICK SILVESTRI VICE CHAIR 020.00 X X 0 0 0 RAYMOND GOSLOW TREASURER 010.00 X 0 0 0 false false false 15089 9160 15089 SPONSORSHIP INCOME 231500 COMPETITION DUES 462313 MERCHANDISE SALES 5586 699399 5932 32335 30988 1347 1347 OTHER INCOME 666 -222 721545 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 14577 14577 44856 44856 11510 11510 0 0 0 0 0 93595 64931 28664 0 0 22854 12465 10389 0 0 0 0 0 0 COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 10068 10068 COMPETITION SUPPORT 239807 239807 OTHER EXPENSES 37736 6282 31454 0 475003 333553 141450 0 46035 219926 277860 150792 9715 5719 121431 165000 87393 239872 5592 15000 548026 796309 1741 0 1741 X 548026 794568 548026 794568 548026 796309 246542 X true X false true false X 439 1855 39543 29836 15089 86762 16171 12003 312775 606029 700746 1647724 16610 13858 352318 635865 715835 1734486 38840 28592 9160 76592 225000 139317 231500 595817 263840 167909 240660 672409 1062077 20 11 206 5157 5710 11104 0 20 11 206 5157 5710 11104 0 130 99 409 98 736 16760 13968 352933 641120 721545 1746326 0.60820 0.59010 0.00640 0.00510 X Middle East and North Africa PROGRAM SERVICES OTHER EXPENSE 700 South Asia PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 2592 Europe Including Iceland and Greenland 2 PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 5547 East Asia and the Pacific PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 2507 South America 1 PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION SUPPORT 23017 North America PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 2398 Russia and the Neighboring States PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 673 Sub-Saharan Africa PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 1523 Central America and the Caribbean PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 847 East Asia and the Pacific PROGRAM SERVICES TRAVEL 4423 East Asia and the Pacific PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION SUPPORT 74782 East Asia and the Pacific PROGRAM SERVICES OTHER EXPENSES 2015 South America PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION EQUIPMENT 2833 Europe Including Iceland and Greenland PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION SUPPORT 62079 Sub-Saharan Africa PROGRAM SERVICES INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 9775 Sub-Saharan Africa PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION SUPPORT 20401 Central America and the Caribbean PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION SUPPORT 120 Central America and the Caribbean PROGRAM SERVICES TRAVEL 240 Europe Including Iceland and Greenland PROGRAM SERVICES INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 33881 Europe Including Iceland and Greenland PROGRAM SERVICES OTHER EXPENSE 3100 Europe Including Iceland and Greenland AGENTS SPEAKING AT CONFERENCE/SEMINAR 1117 Middle East and North Africa PROGRAM SERVICES TRAVEL 294 North America PROGRAM SERVICES COMPETITION SUPPORT 1350 North America FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES 14577 South America PROGRAM SERVICES OTHER EXPENSE 467 South America PROGRAM SERVICES TRAVEL 577 South Asia PROGRAM SERVICES TRAVEL 1520 Sub-Saharan Africa PROGRAM SERVICES TRAVEL 5411 3 3 216232 62534 278766 false false false false false false Part I Line 3 THE ORGANIZATION REPORTS PROGRAM SERVICE EXPENDITURES UNDER SPECIFIC TYPES COMPETITION SUPPORT SERVICES, COMPETITION EQUIPMENT GROSS, AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.
