Overview

Mission

This is a membership organization of men between the ages of 20-39 in the denver area with a mission to raise and grant funds annually to local charities that benefit disadvantaged or at-risk youth.

What it reported doing in 2024

The members of the organization helped raise almost $3 million in revenue through the denver children's foundation, a related organization, through general contributions and event revenue. The members participated in 7 major events held by the related organization during the year, which was able to grant $1.3 million to other organizations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 95% 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.
