Overview

Mission

WeCompost2 is a nonprofit with a mission to combat climate change by promoting on site composting, cultivating vibrant communities in and above the soil. This is done mainly through educational workshops at schools, fairs and other events.

What it reported doing in 2024

Education: reached over 5000 individuals at in person events like the LA County Fair, OC Fair, Earth Day/Month, Pumpkin Fest, farm tours, school programs and other events. Carbon Capture: composted over 500 pounds of food waste per week or 12 tons for the 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 - 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 expenses are high relative to revenue.
