Overview

Mission

The Radical Monarchs create opportunities for young girls and gender expansive youth so that they form fierce friendships, celebrate their identities and contribute radically to their communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

This past year, the Radical Monarchs expanded our impact with the launch of three new troops in Oakland, Long Beach and Brooklyn. In 2024, we saw a remarkable increase in our outreach, serving youth, an increase of 54 radical members.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
