Overview

Mission

To improve public awareness and understanding of lener's congenital amaurosis; to raise, manage and distribute funds to organizations that are working to find causes and/or cures for blindness; and such other public purposes which are related to either of the foregoing as determined by this corporation's board of directors.

What it reported doing in 2024

The annual 5k walk/run improves public awareness and understanding of lener's congenital amaurosis and to raise funds to be distributed to organizations that are working to find causes and/or cures for blindness.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
