Overview
Mission
BOLD Justice is a congregation based community organization whose purpose is to powerfully address community problems in Broward County through a self-sustaining interfaith interracial organization rooted in religious congregations.
What it reported doing in 2025
Building relationships across religious and racial lines was the focus of our program. A total of 365 individuals took part in a 3-month relationship-building initiative. The process included training hosts to facilitate house meetings which took place in private homes or congregations. In total 45 house meetings were conducted with an average of 8.1 attendees per meeting. During these gatherings hosts led discussions where participants shared personal stories about community issues affecting themselves their families and friends. Participants were prompted to discuss the most pressing community problem and share anecdotes related to housing costs. These narratives offered insights into the communitys challenges. Throughout the year leaders maintained and nurtured relationships at organizational events and independently. Moreover our staff engaged in over 700 one-on-one conversations to further solidify these relationships.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 87% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 90% 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
