Overview

Mission

To promote good governance and veteran leadership in public service.

What it reported doing in 2024

The charity plans to provide grants to section 501(c) organizations that advance principled veteran leadership and values in public service. Although specific grantees are not yet identified, the charity anticipates that most, if not all, will be tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the code. To ensure proper use of funds, the charity will conduct pre-grant inquiries, establish grant agreements prohibiting political campaign intervention, require reporting on fund usage, conduct oversight, and retain records to maintain accountability and transparency.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 46% for direct work, and 54% for grants.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
