Overview
Mission
Educational
What it reported doing in 2024
We provided eight (8) workshops at Wesley Methodist after-school program from September 2024 to May 2025. There were 15-19 students in attendance at each workshop. Workshop topics were Aviation (1 workshop), Roller Coaster (1 workshop), Structures Around the World (2 workshops), Generators (2 workshops), and Raspberry Pi blinking LED and traffic light (2 workshops). We provided one Saturday workshop at the University of the Virgin Islands Elridge Blake Sports and Fitness Center to any interested child recruited through the public media in May 2025. Twelve students were in attendance. The workshop topic was Raspberry Pi blinking LED and traffic light. We provided four (4) workshops at the Boys and Girls Club from December 2024 to April 2025. There were 6-12 students in attendance at each workshop. Workshop topics were Aviation, Robotics Assembly (2 workshops) and Robotics Coding (1 workshop). Supporting materials such as engineering kits were purchased for these workshops. In terms of program impact, Engineers for Tomorrow Outreach wants to give children access to engineering experiences so that more of them will answer "I want to be an Engineer". We want to prepare our students in the Virgin Islands to meet the needs of a 21st century economy in the VI and beyond. We desire to fill the niche of informal STEM education in an out-of-school setting. We have done all three.
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
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
