Overview

Mission

The Casa de Oro Alliance is a nonprofit public benefit corporation and is not organized for the private gain of any person. The specific purpose of the Casa de Oro Alliance shall include without limitation, the revitalization of Casa de Oro, an unincorporated area of Spring Valley, California, an unincorporated area of San Diego County.

What it reported doing in 2024

The Casa de Oro Alliance received a grant from the County of San Diego in the amount of $57,080 to engage with flood-impacted businesses and residents to inform them of available flood recovery resources, provide one-on-one assistance and support, to produce and mail a survey and informational post cards to residents and businesses, host a community workshop focusing on mental health support for flood victims. The Casa de Oro Alliance received a second grant from the County of San Diego in the amount of $35.000 to promote a shop local campaign that includes designing, printing, and installing double-sided banners on the light poles in the business corridor and to contract with ArtReach San Diego to oversee, manage, and supervise the painting of a mural on the wall of one of the businesses to kick off the shop-local campaign and bring new customers to the community to support the businesses.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 97% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
