Overview

Mission

To assist disadvantaged communities of talented artisans in raising their standard of living, provide organizations with more donations, and further encourage a sense of social consciousness.

What it reported doing in 2020

We closed our website and concluded sales at the end of september, 2019. The balance of our proceeds from our 2019 product sales were held in our bank account and then donated during 2020 to feeding america and second harvest food bank. During 2020 we donated the remaining products we had in inventory to ronald mcdonald house, habitat for humanity, dress for success and goodwill.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
