We also offer workshops and a wide variety of programs focusing on improving and maintaining the well-being of each participant. In this fiscal year we awarded over $285,103 in scholarships that helped over 870 people have access to our programs, enabling people to participate regardless of economic ability.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 91% 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

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.
