Overview

Mission

We support the partners and communities where we work in four primary ways: Facilitating free youth and adult clinics, camps, leagues, programs, and community outreach events that incorporate our core values; Offering softball and baseball training assistance; Contributing equipment donations; Providing programming and developing collaborations that complement our on-field activities and enhance the wellbeing of program participants and community residents off the field.

What it reported doing in 2024

SIERRA LEONE - We engaged 44 teenage girls through our Softball for Success youth development and girls empowerment program, including through a 5-week session in the winter (featuring 10 softball learning sessions, a tournament, and 5 youth development days along with holistic off-field support) and a 6-day summer camp in June and 56 adults through our Softball Salone adult league featuring 10 games plus playoffs. We also engaged 96 young people through our community softball clinic and school supply distribution.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 93% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
