Overview

Mission

Provide contributions for various qualifying not-for-profit entities to help students build the 'roadmap to their future' through 'connect people, cultivate passion, and create possibilities' (3cs).

What it reported doing in 2014

Consulting expenses help to implement the foundation mission, services, policy development, community outreach, legislative outreach, media relations, grant writing, student interactive learning event coordination, and outreach to potential funders. St. Patrick's student day event expenses were in sponsorship of the st. Patrick's center reality fair.

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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
