Overview
Mission
The mission of Riptide Mission is to provide a competitive baseball environment that promotes Athleticism, Leadership, Character and Community.
What it reported doing in 2024
We had 148 participants in our program, covering 10/2024 - 9/2025. The short-term goal is to participate in athletic competition at a select level. The long-term goal is to develop student-athlete leaders who are prepared to play in advanced levels including high school, college and Professional levels.
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 - 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 some filed totals do not add up.
