In the checkbook:

United States Fencing Association (18,000) members: Income $2,829,537
(FY 2004)
United States Fencing Foundation: Assets $1,602.911 (FY 2004)

All United States Kendo Federation (Federations are members, dojos are members of federations, and individuals are members of dojos - guess ~ 3000-5000 dues payers in US)

Income: $211,512 (FY 2003)
Assets: $220,362 (FY 2003)

All results from Guidestar

A more important question is how to grow kendo and still keep its essential character? (And maybe they are mutually exclusive).
