Overview

Mission

Transcend foundation was established with the mandate to identify, treat, and heal the invisible wounds of active-duty service members, veterans and first responders past and present with their struggling health. These invisible wounds have plagued our communities for far too long. It is our mission now to immediately establish a baseline on the patients by addressing and balancing their endocrine system. These efforts are aimed to not only heal the individual, but the whole family for long term success.

What it reported doing in 2024

General programs - 50 clients served, 365 days of care, roughly 4 sessions per year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 90% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
