Overview
Mission
The primary mission of boys & Girls
What it reported doing in 2017
In 2017, the hawk-houston youth enrichment center served over 300 youths and successfully maintained and expanded the quality of its programs and services to at-risk youths in k-12. The programs and services included: homework assistance, tutoring, kids college (improving reading, math and science skills) act tutorial prep classes, act fee waivers, assistance financial aid and college applications, youth of the year, mentoring, community gardening, job skills training, field trips, skills mastery and resistance training (smart) classes on alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, peer-pressure, premature sexual behavior, developing strong self-image and self-esteem, the arts, arts and crafts, sports/fitness and recreational activities, computer and internet classes, and volunteer community services.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The required major-donor schedule is missing or incomplete and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
