Overview

Mission

Character development program for youth girls; to inspire them to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running.

What it reported doing in 2024

Youth development program: young girls learn that fitness can be fun and rewarding, while developing high levels of self-esteem and confidence.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
