Overview
Mission
Hand in hand is a non-profit organization that empowers children and adults of all abilities to learn and grow by providing inclusive programs and supporting families.
What it reported doing in 2024
Recreation hand in hand's evening and weekend programs are designed to give participants a chance to have fun with their friends while also giving parents/guardians and primary caregivers respite from their caregiving duties. Programs range from fitness classes to a cooking and nutrition class, to adaptive sports and other social experiences.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 67% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- 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.
- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
