Overview

Mission

The organization's mission is to promote sportsmanship and participation in youth sports.

What it reported doing in 2021

The san jose community youth services programs provide the oppotunity for 350 youths from the ages 5 to 17 to participate in organized sports activities. The primary purpose is to promote the development of amateur sports for youth in both skill and sportsmanship. Program service expense include facility rental referee fees uniforms equipment instructor fees and other costs related to the sports activities. The 190 member families of the organization volunteer their time and energy for all manpower activities including the officers of the organization.

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

STRONG - 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.
