Overview
Mission
Our mission is to connect children to the magic of nature and the power of play, where curiosity thrives, creativity blooms and confident, capable lives begin. We have established the dba Maine nature kids. We are building a forest preschool on 88 acres of land in glenburn, Maine which will serve up to 50 children ages 3-5. The school is modeled after the european forest kindergartens where children spend up to 70% of their time outside. Our curricula are 3 pronged: nature based, play based and place based. We will offer a food program with commercial kitchen to provide meals for children and also intermittently to families and the community as well as teach food education.
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 - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
