Overview

Mission

To provide education to children, and equip them to become future leaders.

What it reported doing in 2024

Education Program - Over 150 girls and 5 boys in Mozambique were enrolled in school and provided: school fees, uniforms, backpacks, school supplies, and transportation to and from school. They also received tutoring, literacy sessions, mentorship, ID cards, and family support home visits. We also conducted a service trip in Mozambique, and provided training to team members.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
