What it reported doing in 2024
2nd exempt purpose accomplishment camp bruce mccoy is a nationally-recognized, 40-year-old residential summer camp and respite program for adult survivors of brain injury (18+) and their family members/caregivers. While family members and caregivers enjoy some much deserved days "off", campers enjoy recreational programming customized to their needs and interests in the companionship of their peers and professionally trained staff and volunteers. Camp activities include horseback riding, canoeing, team sports and a ropes challenge course (adapted to the camper's abilities). These social recreational programs reduce the level of social isolation typical among persons with brain injury by providing access to a community of their peers.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Grant-funded. 88% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
- 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
