During the 2025 program year, the organization advanced its mission to promote community health, wellness, and nutrition education through a series of in person and virtual programs serving adults, families, and children. Programs emphasized preventive health, physical activity, nutrition literacy, and hands-on learning. Approximately 181 individuals participated across all program offerings.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
