Overview
Mission
To Provide a fun place for children to explore their identities and promote a sense of belonging and cultural pride while also nurturing their passion for giving back to the community through early childhood education, language learning, social and cultural activities.
What it reported doing in 2023
Multiple FREE community events were hosted in 2023 (chess events, Luna New Year Celebration, Moon Festival event and Halloween event at University Terrace Community Center, Palo Alto, and Nixon International Night at the Nixon Elementary, etc). Events supplies, Nixon International Night clothes and event expense were paid. Regular volunteer meetings were organized for training and event preparation, e.g. music training for performances on events; as a result, Professional fees occurred. President's Volunteer Service Awards were ordered at year end for volunteers recognition.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 98% 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
