Overview

Mission

Coaches outreach exists to impact communities through the christ-like leadership of coaches transformed by biblical truth.

What it reported doing in 2024

Coaches make a difference in broken lives, so we partner with them to help make their impact even more powerful. A typical high school football coach will impact thousands of kids during their career. Most coaches see what they do as a calling, more than a job, so we want to help them as they are on this mission, called by god, and strategically placed in schools to minister to kids in a way few can. We do three simple but powerful things. 1. Equip coaches through relevant, "hands-on" bible studies written just for coaches. The bible study playbooks are free to coaches participating in coaches outreach bible studies at their school. Over 8,000 coaches participate. Continued on sch. O

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 97% 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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
