Contribution and grant supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and grants. The filing reports them as one total, so it does not say how much was granted.
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.
