Overview

Mission

Building community health through herbal medicine, sustainable food cultivation and empowering education

What it reported doing in 2024

Healing Center: We had 135 new patients, 657 returning visits and 2 new partners Herbal Medicine: 25 nutrition, health and gardening classes, 1 seed swap and 160 herbal consultations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 69% 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

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
