Overview

Mission

Provide camps and programs for children with special needs.

What it reported doing in 2024

Three successful camps were held allowing children with special developmental needs to experience the joys of nature. Each session accomodated 45 campers with one counselor for every camper. The camp is now considered to be the #1 camp for children with autism in the tri-valley area.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
