Overview

Mission

The mission of Everybody Wins Minnesota EWM is to increase children's prospects for success in school and in life through reading

What it reported doing in 2015

Central to EWM is the Power Lunch program. Power Lunch pairs one student with one adult volunteer once a week over the lunch hour to read together, talk to each other and develop meaningful life changing friendships. The volunteers promote reading for pleasure by reading aloud to the students and provide positive support and encouragement which helps the student believe he/she to be successful in school and ultimately in life. In 205-16 Power lunch was offered at 10 schools bringing together over 1,000 students and 1,000 volunteers for the weekly reading and mentoring sessions. During the year volunteers and students spent over 12,000 hours together.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 66% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
