Overview

Mission

Our mission is RAD - Rising Above Disabilities! We offer awesome programs and camps for adults and children with developmental disabilities, much-deserved respite for their caregivers and a life-changing volunteer experience for the community.

What it reported doing in 2025

RAD Camps - over the summer, RAD hosts three overnight camps: RAD Jr. (serving ages 5-21) and RAD Camp (serving ages 22+). Each camp includes a variety of day programs such as arts and crafts, sports and science, as well as nightly entertainment, such as live concerts, talent shows and dances. In 2025, we served 265 campers and 1000+ Volunteers served a total of 67,000 hours.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 93% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
