Overview

Mission

To deliver the highest quality transportation, logistical and educational services to our clients with rapid response and efficiency in a caring, professional manner.

What it reported doing in 2016

The organization provided non-emergency van service transportation to approximately 17,000 physically and mentally challenged patients to facilities that provide rehabilitation care to promote the health of the individual. The organization provided charity and other services without compensation of approximately $23,000.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% 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.

The verdict

MIXED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
