Overview

Mission

The mission of Dyslexic Together is to gather information and resources on Dyslexia and make it easily accessible on a website. We also want this site to be a trusted location where Dyslexics can both communicate and find helpful connections. Finally, we want the site to be a safe haven for Dyslexics to share their stories- their successes, their failures, and how they've managed and learned from both.

What it reported doing in 2024

To advocate for reading assistance in testing and certifcations for adult dyslexics.To explore and support educational options and opportunities for adult dyslexics.

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 revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
