Overview

Mission

To provide a no-cost education program for first responders and their organizations.

What it reported doing in 2021

The organization's primary program is an Emotional Intelligence curriculum. A majority of the year was spent researching and writing the curriculum so the organization could provide a respectable program. A majority of the expenses were the monthly office rental and website startup costs.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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

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.
