Overview
Mission
Our mission is to support our four charter schools by raising money for their educational pursuits.
What it reported doing in 2025
The foundation grants scholarships to deserving high school seniors. High school seniors apply annually and submit their transcripts, resumes and an essay. Those with the strongest applications are interviewed so the winners can be chosen by the scholarship committee.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 73% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 93% 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.
