Overview
Mission
To help every individual and organization understand and embrace how much and why they matter.
What it reported doing in 2024
Corporate program: we continue to develop new corporate partnership opportunities by delivering a variety of services that help engage employees and fulfill various social responsibility commitments of organizations to give back and support their local communities. Customized digital assets, team-building and community give back experiences were employed by 5 corporate clients. In response to the covid19 pandemic, emm launched a series of virtual workshops focused on the emotional wellbeing of people and change management. We are back to in-person events once again, although companies are still wrestling with distance, hybrid, and in-person work balance. The corporate program also funds our general and administrative expenses which allows emm to dedicate 100% of all donations to our current you matter education program.
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.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
