Overview

Mission

To support students going back to school in style, providing backpacks, school supplies, new and gently used footwear, new socks, free haircuts and manicures to students in underrepresented communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

JeffsShoeChallenge 2024 Overview: We were able to help supply over 700 kids with footwear, socks, backpacks, school supplies, laptops, nail painting and haircuts. In partnership with the Oregon Food Bank, we were able to give away 100 food boxes to families in need.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 99% 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 program spending has declined or grown slowly.
