Overview

Mission

The mission of Veterans 3 Gun is to promote community and enjoyment of life for all veterans through competitive shooting sports and to promote public awareness of the high suicide rate within the veteran community. The organization focuses on providing veterans assistance by connecting them with job assistance programs, mental health counselors, VA benefits assistance, and the covering the costs associated with participating in a 3 gun shooting competition.However, due to the circumstances beyond the control of the organization brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, this not-for-profit has been forced to cease operations.

What it reported doing in 2020

Due to COVID-19 restrictions the venues for gun competitions were closed down preventing the organization from conducting one of its core outreaches. In response, the organization resorted to social media and on-line meetings using Zoom technology and was able to assist approximately 200 members and veterans.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 98% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
