Overview

Mission

The organization's purpose is to raise money to purchase gifts for children at the christmas season. This was the organization's primary mission, and the organization's secondary mission is to raise money through a road rally fund raising event for the purpose of financially helping a handicapped children's organization; specifically the "helping hands society," located in the hazleton area. The organization did not hold the road rally in 2023. It cannot be determined how many children were assisted with christmas gifts . The organization also held a golf tournament, and the proceeds were donated to a local animal rescue organization, pawsitiveally perfect.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 74% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.

The verdict
