Overview

Mission

The corporation will enhance the quality of community life and the quality of the personal lives of persons and families in and around the mon-valley area by providing care services, educational programs, youth activities, and other activities necessary, and in unique ways, to enhance the quality of life of the community.

What it reported doing in 2025

The full potential project operates a coffee shop within the organization's facility. The main purpose of the activity is to provide a safe and relaxing environment to community members whose students are participating in the program activities. The coffee shop hosts several events throughout the year to enhance literacy, creative expression through arts and crafts, and weekly mentorship programs for men.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 66% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
