Overview
Mission
La Jornada's mission is to Serve with Compassion, the most basic needs of New York City's most vulnerable families, the poor, and the emigrant, and to Empower them out of poverty.
What it reported doing in 2019
Backpack of Hope: Has provided a school backpack to thousands of children. A new backpack with supplies makes the child feel that he is the same as all other children. That belief in equality helps them break the cycle of poverty.
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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
