To benefit children by providing hope and positive vision and bringing out the best in our youth, our community, and ourselves.

Special Days Camp. The Club conducts various fund raisers to provide funds to serve the youth in our community. Special Days Camp is a camp for children with cancer as well as a separate camp for siblings of children with cancer

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 62% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
