Overview

Mission

We envision a future where all club members graduate from high school ready for college and career, equipped with the skills, confidence, and character to thrive as healthy, engaged community members and leaders.

What it reported doing in 2025

After school and summer clubhouse programs - these programs provide youth between kindergarten and 6th grade with a safe, positive, inclusive place to learn and grow under the supervision of our youth development specialists. Club members participate in planned activities and programs that build resiliency, self sufficiency and support academic and social skills. The club's dedicated johnson teen center serves 7th - 12th grade teens at no charge in career exploration, financial literacy, job skills training, paid internships and summer employment. The club provides programs on most non school days and offers full day summer care.

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

SUPPORTED - 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 reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
