Overview

Mission

Providing scholarships to single mothers and underpriviledged students

What it reported doing in 2024

Scholarships -- Achieve The Dream HBCU Scholarship -- In honor of Black History Month, we award students with tuition scholarships to the HBCU they are attending or plan to attend in the fall.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
