Overview

Mission

Advancement of education for elementary school students.

What it reported doing in 2025

GWE delivered an after-school program in 15 elementary schools in New Mexico benefiting over 200 students in 3rd through 6th grades. Expenses covered program supplies and field trips. Students learn about relevant sciences and issues regarding climate change.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
