Overview
Mission
The organization promotes and facilitates racial and ethnic diversity by supporting youth from underrepresented backgrounds in summer camping to attend overnight summer camp.
What it reported doing in 2024
Summer camp program activities promoting racial and ethnic diversity for children from under-resourced communities.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 88% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
