Overview

Mission

Keeps the youths of the community and enagage them in a positive environment and positive activities.

What it reported doing in 2023

On easter, christmas, thanksgiving, halloween and back to school, the youth would be brought together to share in the experiences of the holiday with food, games, prizes and a positive approach to life. Would be discussed with the youth. The importance of making good choices was always the underlying theme during any of the community activities.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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

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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
