What it reported doing in 2024

Youth after school and summer program- provides children in the mid-city neighborhood strategy area who need a safe haven as an alternative to being left unattended with nothing to do during the summer months and at the end of the school day with a place to go and many activities to participate in.

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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
