Overview
Mission
Build Them Up Foundation was founded by Rob Walters and Tim Sommer to promote goodwill and fellowship within the Construction Industry while benefiting those less fortunate. The organization raises funds in various ways to provide assistance to organizations which demonstrate positive results in taking care of patients with life threatening illnesses.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
