Overview

Mission

To organize and fund an annual kids tennis tournament

What it reported doing in 2016

Funds received by the organization were used to rent tennis courts, furnish tennis supplies, provide transportation, lodging, and meals to amateur tennis players, setup tournament facilities, and pay tournament officials.

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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
