Through the one degree platform, the community unlocked approximately $37.7 million worth of benefits and services, strengthening economic stability and improving quality of life for individuals and families.behind the scenes, one degree's technology platform adheres to rigorous data privacy and security standards, including hipaa and soc 2 type ii compliance.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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 - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
