Overview

Mission

Serenity Mentoring is a new organization that will begin accepting grants to assist with the monthly expenses for community outreach events i.e back-to-school, trunk or treat, and Thanksgiving event. However, we collect membership dues and program fees to assist with expenses to cover for our group mentoring sessions with our youth girls.

What it reported doing in 2020

We collected board member dues and donations for the tax period.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filed totals do not add up and the available information about grant readiness automatic revocation leaves an important question unanswered.

Grant-readiness screening is separate from the live rating, not a measure of program quality. Review the source records before making a grant decision.

  • Moderate — Transparency & Controls: Part III program expenses within total did not reconcile in the filed values.
  • High — Grant Readiness: Automatic revocation: this organization had its federal tax-exempt status automatically revoked.
