Overview
Mission
Inactive foster care/adoption agency
What it reported doing in 2024
The agency ceased operations in 2022 and entered a plan of liquidation which consisted of the collection of receivables, the payments of any remaining liabilities, and responding to inquiries about former foster children transferred to other agencies. In 2024 it was determined that all receivables and payables had been resolved. A final payment of 37,500 was distributed to a qualified 501 (c)(3) organization and final payroll tax returns were filed and liabilities paid. There were no remaining assets and liabilities remaining at 12/31/24.
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
- The available evidence is not sufficient to produce an overall rating for this filing. This is not a warning sign.
