Overview

Mission

Inspire and enable young people to reach potential.

What it reported doing in 2024

The boys and girls club provides health, social, and educational programs for over 1,000 young boys and girls from disadvantaged circumstances. The club uses facilities donated in areas in need for the services offered by the boys and girls clubs.

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.

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.
