Overview
Mission
The purpose for which James River Women is formed is to diversify the whitewater community by creating a supportive environment to empower underrepresented individuals, sharing knowledge, and reducing barriers to entry in the sport. We carry out this mission by providing free whitewater kayaking instruction and facilitating community events in the greater Richmond, VA region.
What it reported doing in 2025
We ran 10 roll clinics, 19 community laps, and 5 skills clinics. 122 unique individuals came kayaking with us a total of 264 times.
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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
