Overview

Mission

To provide a safe, enjoyable environment where teenage youth are heard, encouraged, and empowered.

What it reported doing in 2024

We provide a safe, enjoyable environment for teenage youth to engage in social, recreational, and cultural activities. Our aim is to prepare teens to be productive, self-reliant adults who can participate fully in society. Teens have unlimited access to snacks and opportunity to cook and eat meals together. We served approximately 200 teens in 2024, with a total attendance of 2,545 for the year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of voting board members are independent.
