Mission

The dominate the day foundation is committed to helping young people become the absolute best version of themselves, through character, relationships, academics, sports and their positive impact on the world.

Services include: one-on-one tutoring in reading, writing, math and other content areas, specialized reading programs, consulting for 504 and ieps, test prep in act/sat, ssat, and most advanced placement courses. We also offer coaching, mentoring, skill/positional training, and drills in football at our youth camps for free or reduced fee based on income.

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 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 program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
