Overview
Mission
Religious boarding school for troubled boys who are unable to function in regular schools and alternative schools of the regular public school system.
What it reported doing in 2023
Our school also provides our students many vocational educational opportunities. They have explored agricultural activities such as farming and gardening. The students were able to work with all kinds of farm animals such as horses, cows, pigs, chickens, goats, and dogs. They were able to have a vegetable garden, flower garden, and work with fruit trees. We also provided the students with an automotive program where the students took out a transmission and motor. The boys learned to rebuild the motor and were actually able to reassemble the vehicle and make it run. They also learned basic automotive skills such as changing tires, changing oil and filters, replacing headlights, etc. In addition to this, the students also learned many construction skills such as framing, sheetrock, roofing, block and brick laying, etc. (2 students.)
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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
