Overview

Mission

Woman's co-op is women helping women working together to improve lives, families and our community. We foster an active network of support that provides much-needed resources for career training and life management.

What it reported doing in 2025

We have a growing job training program whereby participants needing marketable skills are placed with local businesses. Participants receive on-site job training and upon completion, many participants gain long-term employment with these businesses. We also train participants at our physical location to gain janitorial and office work skills.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
