Overview
Mission
Remedylive engages people in meaningful conversations through technology as a next step toward christ.
What it reported doing in 2025
Program events include both the get schooled tour for students and wired experience for adults. The get schooled tour, for elementary, middle, and high school students, is a one-hour, interactive convocation that combines live entertainment, interactive polling, motivating video, and an educational emphasis on mental health to reveal the network of care that surrounds students. The wired experience is a one-hour event geared towards adults, that can happen virtually or in person and uses remedylive's proprietary polling technology to ask the participants questions about their mental health so aggregate results can be presented with important next steps to lower the stigma and move those struggling into the network of care. In 2025, 34,479 individuals were served through 102 events.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 61% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- 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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
