Overview
Mission
We will create leaders and build self-confidence in every single one of our athletes. We are an 'athlete first' program- we are committed to our athletes and their success. We hope that when the time comes for our athletes to graduate and move to a new phase in life, they take with them the kindness, integrity, character, work ethic, and self-confidence they have gained by being a part of the Cheer Passion family!
What it reported doing in 2025
Competition Costs - fees collected from participants and donors were used to send 104 kids to local and regional competitions in 2025
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
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.
