Overview

Mission

In local or global service. Transitioning from a service year can be a disorienting experience. Through mentoring, a colleague community, debriefing services and intercultural leadership development we help young adults fully understand and employ the learnings from their service expereince. A service year, when nurtured, becomes a life of service leadership.

What it reported doing in 2019

Trained 12 Apprentice Facilitators to be certified in training of partner organizations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 78% 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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
