Overview
Mission
Organized to provide reward, recognition and opportunity to students of the oak park school district.
What it reported doing in 2009
Recognition - the student of the month breakfast, student improvement luncheon, recognition and scholarship, and the alfreda bailey scholarship. Encourage good performance habits early in students' lives and reinforces job-readiness skills. Scholarship opportunities are available for students who participate in opbea programs.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 86% 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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
