Overview

Mission

The kids kicking high mission was to improve the future of at risk children in our community by promoting the dignity and self-worth of all children. Make a change in their path before they enter the judicial system. Our objective was to influence as many students as possible through example and guidance. We used our thirst for knowledge and innovation to connect with students on their level and help them become successful. Operations ceased in 2024.

What it reported doing in 2024

Proven educational innovation was to teach children in an exciting before and after school program. Ceased operations in 2024.

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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
