Overview

Mission

It was formed to sponsor, manage and execute multipsort race events, particularly the Santa Rosa Island Triathlon, in Pensacola, Florida. In 2022, GIAT added 2 youth event series to their portfolio. The monies raised through sponsorship and race registration will be used to assist youth athletics with charitable donations and grants in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. GIAT will concentrate its outreach to youth organizations that promote athletics and a healthy lifestyle.

What it reported doing in 2025

The event was able to provide $19417 in donations to youth organizations and youth athletics in the community. GIAT has 2 youth events to their management, each race has over 200 athletes participating. These races do not produce revenue, but rather provide athletic events for youth. The primary purpose of GIAT is to support youth athletics in the community. Over 1400 youth and adults served in 2025.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
