Overview

Mission

Our organization is dedicated to fundraising for Canyon View Elementary school to provide our children with the best education possible through Technology, Art, Science, Music, P.E. & Impact Programs along with software licensing and other school needs that are NOT met by current school DISTRICT budgets.

What it reported doing in 2024

During the 2024-2025 school year, the Canyon View Elementary Foundation paid for part of Canyon View Elementary School's art and science supplies, student and classroom resources, and COVID-19 safety measures, playground and recess equipment, and helped pay for some of the school's technology needs.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
