Overview

Mission

Miracle in the woods foundation believes that all individuals, regardless of diagnosis or disability, have the right to experience life to its fullest potential. We provide adults and youth with developmental and physical disabilities the opportunity to participate in accessible hunting and fishing excursions in southwest Georgia.

What it reported doing in 2023

The main service of the charitable organization is to provide the experience of a hunting trip for those with disabilities at no cost to the participants.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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 liabilities are high compared with assets.
