Overview

Mission

The organization's mission is to engender, foster and promote athletic programs and school spirit.

What it reported doing in 2024

Avon grove sports boosters supports approximately 1,000 athletes affiliated with the avon grove high school athletic programs. The organization provides equipment, insurance, concessions, spiritwear and support for fundraising efforts. The members consist of any parent of an athlete or community member with an interest in avon grove athletics. The philosophy is to support all students and all athletic programs. The organization is able to provide funds for large equipment purchases that are not provided by the school district. This removes a financial burden from the local community tax base.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 72% of the money available for current operations came from other operating 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
