Overview

Mission

The primary exempt purpose of Nebraska Rainbow is to prepare girls for life. We empower girls to successes in adulthood through character, leadership, and citizenship development through Rainbow experiences.

What it reported doing in 2025

1) Leadership workshops, events, opportunities and mentoring. 2) We encourage, promote, and engage our girls and adults in community service and outreach via serving the elderly, serving those impacted by traumas, and natural emergencies, supporting and serving first responders, engaging with public schools, and their programming and sports events, supporting the Masonic Eastern Star Home for Children, and the Nebraska Masonic Home for senior citizens. 3) We develop and facilitate a statewide service project yearly as selected by our youth leader (GWA) which in 2025 has supported, promoted and engaged with early childhood education programs through donations of needed items and monetary funds. (Breast cancer, world wide clean water, libraries, Shrine Hospitals, early childhood education, Headstart, and MADD are other examples.)

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 60% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
