Overview

Mission

Alliance 180 is a peer-to-peer, action-based program preventing suicide and healing trauma for fellow Veterans and First Responders, through a transformative equine experience.

What it reported doing in 2024

Eligibility expansion has led to increased participation in the program, outreach and awarness in providing essential services to men and women who have experienced significant trauma through their involvement in the united states military or as first responders in their communities or professions.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 94% 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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
