Overview

Mission

SEDI continues the successful teacher awards for sustainable curriculum and partners with Northern Arizona University, school districts in northern Arizona and non-profit organizations in the community to offer enrichments and other programs.

What it reported doing in 2024

For the 16th year, recognized 3 teachers in northern Arizona for innovative educational approaches that instill in students the importance, value, and practicality of local environmental, social, and economic aspects of sustainability.

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 82% 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
