Overview
Mission
Support for marginalized at risk youth age 14-22.
What it reported doing in 2024
Youth mentoring: working with youth to set goals, build healthy relationships, create positive life skills, offer academic support, address mental health/substance issues, and provide opportunities for civic engagement.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 96% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
