Overview

Mission

Our goal is to bring cheerleading to the Ridgewood community for the ages 2nd Grade through 8th Grade.

What it reported doing in 2025

We successfully ran the program for 240+ girls and grew the sport of cheerleading in the town of Ridgewood

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 94% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
