Overview

Mission

Tylers Light was created to bring awareness and resources to youth in Ohio and anywhere that can be reached to enable them to not be caught up in drug usage. Post COVID our reach into schools has been limited. A strong website and network of individuals to keep the message front and center.

What it reported doing in 2024

Presented "Speak Up - Save a Life" at high schools. Developed new current videos to use in the live presentations and on the website. Worked with parents and peers to find opportunities to help the afflicted.

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 86% 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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
