Overview

Mission

Sunshine is a not-for-profit child care provider that has been providing superior school-age child care programs in Broward County since 1992.

What it reported doing in 2025

The organization furnishes child care, both before and after school to children, primarily in public schools and receives grants for this, based on the child's income level

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. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
