Overview
Mission
To minister to youth living in southeast lancaster city and beyond to promote personal, spiritual, and educational growth in a safe, wholesome environment to provide biblical, culturally-relevant, and holistic activities to be a catalyst for establishing the youth, young adults, and their families in community churches.
What it reported doing in 2024
We partner with individuals, churches, businesses, educational institutions and a wide range of organizations to serve as a cross-cultural advocate that challenges youth (ranging from 7 to 17) to become tomorrow's leaders. We are passionate about providing an intentional, high quality, after- school program for some of lancaster's most at-risk youth. Our after-school program runs five days per week and provides students with focus on academics, life skills, nutrition/fitness, performing arts and spiritual formation. We served students as they participated and were fully engaged in the enrichment opportunities provided at the center. We will continue to offer tutoring and homework assistance, small groups to assist with everyday issues, nutrition and fitness classes, private music lessons, spoken work poetry, and hip hop dance classes. Our summer programs served over 50 students teaching them about world cultures and computer skills. It is our goal to continue to give the students unique and relevant developmental opportunities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- 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 a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
