Mission

Encourage, inspire and motivate all people towards excellence in life and leadership.

Music instruction - group lessons were held for stickfigures, drum set ensemble, keyboard ensemble, drumline, kids love drums and junior drummers. Private lessons were also conducted on a regular basis.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 86% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
