Overview

Mission

Dreamflight offers gymnastics, dance, acting and writing classes for children through adults, as well as competitive gymnastics and dance teams, at rates low and moderate income families can afford. We also work with parents who are struggling financially to afford even our rates, always putting the children first.

What it reported doing in 2025

We currently serve 199 families (267 children), 118 families actively taking classes, others who come to our monthly Kid's Nights or our drop-in adult gymnastics class. The number fluctuates from Session to Session. Our monthly expenses range from $11,000-$12,353 depending on payroll hours for a particular month. Parents and kids get a skills report once a Session to track their progress. We measure our success one happy child at a time. When we hear a parent say their child can't wait to come to class, we know we've succeeded. When a parent thanks us for making it affordable, and thus possible, for their child to learn a sport they love, we know we succeeded. There is no monetary way to measure our success, at least not at this time. We barely manage to pay our monthly bills. There is nothing extra or in reserves and we have received no grants.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 82% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
