Overview
Mission
Edify served over 100 families during the 2020 tax year. This included providing over $1000 worth of school supplies and backpacks to low incomes families in the Inglewood and south la communities during the Covid-19 pandemic. We also partnered with local businesses and created new partnerships. In addition to this, we launched our first coding/entrepreneurship 6 week program and serviced 10 students. Each student had 2 mentors and created their own money generating app or website. During the program, students learned basic business and marketing methods as well as coding and website development skills.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and expenses are high relative to revenue.
