Mission
See Schedule O
What it reported doing in 2024
Leadership Academy - The Kuntry Kidz Leadership Academy provided a year-round platform for 15 middle and high school students to build essential leadership, communication, and decision-making skills. Through monthly workshops, service projects, and peer mentorship, participants learned how to advocate for themselves and others.
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. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
