Overview
Mission
Provide charitable support to our community by helping our neighbors in need supporting local charities through fundraising and improving our community through volunteer hours and financial support for community improvements.
What it reported doing in 2025
Emergency Relief: One of the local community members suffered a severe fire at their home and we were able to rally the community to raise funds to replace critical personal & hygiene items. Additionally we worked with local businesses to provide temporary emergency housing and gift certificates to help get them through this terrible emergency,
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.
The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
