Overview

Mission

To provide a safe place where the spiritual, emotional, educational and physical needs of children, youth and their families are responded to in a holistic approach. We strive to accomplish this through early childhood and school age educational programming.

What it reported doing in 2024

Educational programming for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and grade schoolers from 7 am to 5:00 pm monday through friday. The center provides quality child care, educational activities, nutritious meals, and a chance to learn and grow in a safe environment. The center provides transportation between the center and several schools in the area. Our after school program focuses on tutoring, homework help, educational activities and recreational activities and more. The summer program focuses on academic enrichment, recreational activities, art camps and more. We strive to provide quality care and education to all regardless of socioeconomic status or a family's ability to pay market rates and to keep child care affordable for all. This is possible because of generous donors and grants which allow us to provide a sliding scale based on a family's income.

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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
