Overview

Mission

Ms. Steph's Science Club provides direct STEAM education to youth through multiple programs: Saturday Science Club: Free weekend STEAM enrichment classes for elementary students. Summer Science Club: Affordable summer day camp STEAM programming for Harlem youth.

Community Engagement: Free slime kits, STEAM starter kits, and educational materials distributed at community events, along with Giving Tuesday fundraising campaigns.

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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and liabilities are high compared with assets.
