Overview

Mission

To help children that recently lost a parent (s) in a traffic auto mobile accident by offering them with seasonal clothing in the first year up to $2000

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filed totals do not add up.
