Overview

Mission

The purpose of the organization is to support the students, parents, staff, and coaches of the Downey High School Football Programs by recruiting volunteers, raising funds, and conducting events.

What it reported doing in 2018

Hosted multiple small events throughout year for students.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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. Assets have declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
