Overview

Mission

To provide essential knowledge, training, and opportunities to empower youth to become productive citizens as well as to establish spiritually, academically, physically and financially.

What it reported doing in 2022

Fitness and fun - serviced 165 people. This program required 22 weeks of training and 15 weeks of travel. It exposed students to local ad national events in efforts to obtain college scholarships

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
