Overview
Mission
Camp cranium is a non-profit program dictated to providing a one-of-a-kind experience for children ages 6-18 with brain injuries by putting on a one week summer camp where children with traumatic brain injuries have the unique opportunity to meet other children with brain injuries in a safe, supportive, and fun environment.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 98% 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
