Overview
Mission
To educate federally impacted school systems about federal assistance that is available to them.
What it reported doing in 2024
Good idea grants - fisef good idea grants support federally impacted pre k-12 teachers and schools in their efforts to address students' academic needs and social/emotional wellness. Grants of up to $5,000 are awarded to nafis-member school district applicants that strive to increase outcomes in these areas. These grants typically go to teachers with great ideas whose projects would otherwise be unfunded due to budgetary restraints in the district. Eligible projects: 1) provide students the opportunity to grow and become creative, innovative and critical thinkers, 2) are sustainable - they can be replicated in other classrooms, schools and school districts, 3) allow students to apply classroom knowledge to real-life applications. Fisef good idea grants have funded a wide range of projects, including preschool preparedness, robotics, after school reading programs, outdoor classrooms, a digital history of a native american tribe, efforts to strengthen community relations between military members and citizens and more.
Operating model

- Distribution model
- Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 71% for direct work, and 29% for grants.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Liabilities are high compared with assets and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
