Overview
Mission
We support, empower and enable individuals in need. Great leap forward has many diverse pathways to deliver its community-based services to those in need and at the current time the main segments include: advising local small businesses through diverse community-based services including conferences, continuing education and coaching. In economically challenged areas, empowering women through conferences and continuing education, helping refugees, immigrants and low income people both at home and abroad, using art as a tool for healing trauma, mental and emotional health services and assistance for minorities and other disenfranchised groups.
What it reported doing in 2024
Our conferences help advance and develop female leadership and empowerment through exposure to female leadership examples in addition to coaching and continuing education. We also concentrated on providing support groups, coaching teams, and career development within the refugee camp.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 84% 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
