Overview

Mission

To support charitable organizations

What it reported doing in 2024

Each year, the foundation gives up to three cash awards to students in craft/trade apprenticeship programs at the dr. James a. Forrest technology center who are selected for their written responses to questions regarding career goals, commitment to community service, and achievements.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 64% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
