Overview

Mission

To improve the quality of life for underprivileged children and adolescents with chronic and life threatening illnesses by providing free, personal lessons in the arts and athletics.

What it reported doing in 2024

Coachart programs: coachart's one-on-one lessons are the core of coachart's service model. Talented volunteer coaches provide high quality in-home instruction to chronically ill children and their siblings over the course of 4-8 weeks. At the end of the 4-8 week session, coachart students can renew their activity or sign up for something new. Coachart clubs create unique multi-week experiences where children form a bond with fellow participants while gaining valuable skills in the activity of their choice. One-day group lessons provide short-term instructive settings for a group of children to learn a new skill in a supportive social environment. All lessons and materials are provided at no cost to volunteers or families.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - 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.
