Overview

Mission

Jericho meets the academic, physical, social, and spiritual needs of danbury ct's at-risk youth, and by extension their families, through wholistic, volunteer-powered programs and services, for god's glory.

What it reported doing in 2024

To serve and transform the "at-risk" youth of danbury by providing programs that support physical and social well-being as well as academic achievement. The physical well-being of youth is supported through the food pantry and through grants to the samaritan health center which provides medical care to those under age 18 that do not have health insurance. Academic acheivement is supported through summer learning, tutoring, and mentoring programs as well as bible study.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
