Overview

Mission

To revitalize local communities

What it reported doing in 2011

CCW mission is to encourage healthy lifestyles and successful choices for the children and families of the Dunsmuir community through the Kids' Factory Family Resource Center. The vision is the hope that community members will receive the community support, referrals and resources necessary to meet their own family's needs. Community members will have ample opportunity to engage in learning and personal growth through the programs that evolve from the CCW Kids' Factory FRC. We will be responsive to and accountable to the community that we serve.

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
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

SUPPORTED - 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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
