What it reported doing in 2024

The youth/senior program provided personalized mentorship and essential services. The youth program kings and kueens supported youths and their families in the community helping them work through process conflict, mental and social conflicts, and help them reach their goals. We held monthly small group violence prevention workshops, organized ballin in the park, mentored over 50 youths and famlies in one on one support and provided over 50 backpacks and supples. Our senior services included home assistance, emergency snow removal, light maintenance and emotional support. Holiday gift cards were provided to 300 seniors for food. Weekley bingo reach 325 new individuals attending multiple sessions. Both program participants experienced significant improvements in their mental, physical, social, and fiscal well-being.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% 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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
