Overview

Mission

To educate, train, and assist individuals and/or organizations in developing their technology, fiduciary responsibilities, and best practices. The primary focus is community-based organizations and social enterprises serving the under-served, marginalized communities.

What it reported doing in 2024

Technical Assistance - To provide workshops and training to individuals and organizations regarding financial management, board development, grant writing, and strategic planning.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 79% 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. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and expenses are high relative to revenue.
