Overview

Mission

We believe that each child who enters arrow academy will find a calling that changes the world, that every child has valuable gifts to contribute to their community, and that children are capable of so much more than what is expected of them in a traditional classroom environment.

Providing a curriculum for entrepreneurial skills, and creating opportunities for children throughout the community to participate in an annual children's business fair.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
