Overview

Mission

To provide a caring environment and diverse positive outlets for children grades k - 12. The programs are designed to enrich the lives of children of all ages, foster the "it takes a village" support and strengthen family foundations to build and strengthen the entire community.

What it reported doing in 2024

The programs provide children and teens a supportive environment where they will have the opportunity to enjoy a variety of activities such as sports, gardening, and carpentry. Activities such as these teach children and teens the importance of teamwork, patience, and the value of a good work ethic, along with skills that may be useful throughout their entire lifetime. Other programs include: after-school tutorial to help students with homework assignments as well as assist with planned projects; feeding programs to ensure no participant leaves the organization hungry; and the mentorship program designed to help participants make good choices, develop responsibilities, stimulate curiosity, and provide the necessary tools, skills, and support needed that will enable them to become self-reliant and thrive in their homes, schools, and communities.

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 program spending has declined or grown slowly.
