Overview

Mission

To provide educational assistance to students who show leadership in school or outside school and might have overcome hardship to reach graduation, who also show potential and academic promise.

What it reported doing in 2024

CSA Leadership Scholarship was established as a college scholarship fund for NYC public high school seniors. The scholarship is intended for those who have shown leadership potential, have overcome challenges to reach graduation and are in need of financial assistance to continue their education. The applicant's character, rather than GPA, is evaluated for the award. Five awards are distributed to graduating seniors who have been accepted into a recognized institution of higher learning, including community colleges. The award is given to one student per borough based on the location of the high school the student attends. A supervisor must assess and verify that the student has great potential for success; a committee of active and inactive CSA members reviews all applications.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
