Overview

Mission

Connecting volunteers and charities

What it reported doing in 2012

Helping charities maximize their use of volunteers. We conducted research on how charities are currently utilizing volunteers and identify the practices that can be improved. We have been working on a consulting package for how charities can improve their use of volunteers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
