Overview
Mission
Education
What it reported doing in 2015
Educate and galvanize newly registered voters and youths that are not yet eligible to vote through entertainment, social networking, and other mass media outlets to increase awareness about the importance of their voting contributions.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 93% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- 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 - 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.
