Overview
Mission
The ukiah valley christmas effort is organized exclusively for charitable purposes and more specifically, to provide quality gifts for children from birth to 18 years old (or until completion of high school). In addtion, to gifts, food items to make a nutritious dinner that can be prepared by the family will also be given (if the family does not have the means to cook an alternative food option will be given) to the economically disadvantaged families. We assist 431 families of which 31 were homeless, with 1,200 children ages birth to 18 years and their parents each year.
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
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
