The organization helps its members acquire needed skills for living through relevant, substantial, and diversified programming.

What it reported doing in 2024

Youth programming: the club provides before- and after-school programs at sites throughout the areas of truckee meadows, fernley, winnemucca, ely, tonopah, and lovelock. Before-school programs provide the first meal of the day for its members and preparation for the upcoming day of school. After-school programs provide homework assistance and activities which include sports leagues, video games, and art programs, as well as providing snacks and the evening meal. Track-break programming is also provided for students on multi-track and year-round school programs and is offered to students between the ages of 6 through 12.

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 99% 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. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration and the available information about grant readiness federal audit leaves an important question unanswered.
