Overview

Mission

Maintain and run school community garden and kitchen, support Adult Transition Special Education Program for 18-22 year old adults.

What it reported doing in 2024

Abraxas High School Community Garden/Kitchen: A full aquaponics and community garden program with Agriculture & Culinary classes offered. Culinary classes teach cooking skills using produce grown in the garden. 100% hands-on classroom. Over 200 students have access to this program. At the Abraxas High School Garden, the Farm to Table Program is dedicated to fostering a deeper connection between our students, the environment, and their community. We aim to cultivate not only nutritious, locally grown produce but also a lifelong appreciation for sustainable agriculture, healthy eating, and environmental stewardship. Through hands-on learning, students gain practical garden skills, an understanding of seasonal cycles, and the importance of food security. Our program strives to empower students to make informed food choices, promote environmental responsibility, and nurture a sense of community by donating 80% of our produce to members of our community who need it the most. Together, we grow more food; we grow knowledge, responsibility, and a healthier future.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 78% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
