Overview
Mission
The primary purposes of Fire Sports & Recreation are to promote community transformation and disciple multiplication through life-changing, counter-cultural experiences and relationships in sports, fitness and adventure, and whatever is deemed necessary, useful, advisable or conducive, directly or indirectly, to carry out these purposes.
What it reported doing in 2024
Experiential learning/adventure events- In 2024 we were able to provide unique team building and experiential learning challenges for approximately 100 people. We do these activities in partnership with other organizations to help them achieve their desired outcomes. We do this voluntarily, as a way of serving and helping other organizations with a similar mission. We plan and facilitate a segment of a larger event that aligns with our mission. In 2024 we planned and facilitated two different team challenges for college-aged leadership organizations and one for a high school youth ministry. Additionally, we facilitated several in person training (classroom) courses for other sports ministry leaders from across North America. We do not have expenses for this portion of our work is minimal as we often reuse materials or have supplies that are household items.
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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
