Overview

Mission

To inspire and assist young talent to pursue an IT career in Greater Cincinnati.

What it reported doing in 2024

INTERalliance brings selected students into direct employment at leading companies around the Greater Cincinnati area. The programs are organized in a continuum of opportunities that begin with those offered to 10th graders and continue through undergraduate and graduate school. INTERalliance placed 192 interns with 42 different organizations during the fiscal year. INTERAlliance sponsored the Techolympics, the largest student-run conference in the United States. The Techolympics inspire and network students so that they are prepared to become the future IT leaders in our region. INTERalliance also sponsored the Jumpstart program, a pre-intern program that prepares students furthest from opportunity for the rigor expected from our internship program.

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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
