Overview

Mission

Provides services and emergency assistance to low income families, individuals and children

What it reported doing in 2011

Assisted over 500 families with in-kind-donation, provided counseling services to 50 families and individuals, conducted summer camp and after school services to 75 kids.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
