Overview

Mission

The Colin Beech Foundation was started in honor of our son Colin, who had his life altered as a result of a ruptured AVM (arteriovenous malformation) in his brain during October of 2020. Our foundations goal is to further the research and education for those affected by AVMs. Colins foundation donates to local hospitals, rehabilitations centers, and charities that assist people and families suffering from this rare disease. It is our goal to give back to the many organizations that played a part in Colins recovery, as we hope to see future advances in patient treatment and care, as well as increased support networks for families.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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.
