What it reported doing in 2024
Youth leadership camps and community engagementthe newport news police department holds youth leadership camps. Youth leadership camps are opportunities for a cross-section of 13 to 17-year-olds to learn about teamwork and trust, and develop leadership and other lifelong skills. The camps are staffed by newport news police officers. Students experience an intense, paramilitary-style program. Nnpf also provides contributions to the newport news pipes and drums corp and hampton roads boys and girls clubs. Other activities include the police and pals program to provide mobile playgrounds for officers to visit children at events, churches, businesses and neighborhoods; in-touch community basketball for friendly competition between youth and first responders.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- 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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
