Overview

Mission

Outsiders Anonymous exists to provide free fitness training and an awesome sober community to help individuals run towards recovery and lift themselves into a life worth living.

What it reported doing in 2023

Outsiders Anonymous successfully opened the only 100% free gym in Texas that serves as a community center and drop-in center for the Central Texas area. At this location OA provided free fitness training and group classes along with support groups and certified peer supportive services to leverage the recent research demonstrating the effectiveness of physical activity in early recovery.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 90% 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 - 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 total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
