Overview
Mission
To provide computer coding education to men and women in educationally underserved communities.
What it reported doing in 2021
Our entire model was built to provide high-level Computer Science education to BIPOC youth who are often left out of certain sectors. Our commitment to racial equity is ubiquitous in not just our design, but also in our programming. Seven years of data collection shows our commitment to inclusivity in computer science spaces: 100% of our graduates come from overlooked communities and are considered minorities. We have a proven track record of attracting and retaining young people of color, with 91% overall completion and 31% Hispanic participation, 27% Native American participation, and 42% African American participation.
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
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 revenue has declined or grown slowly.
