Overview

Mission

Womens Resource Center (WRC) in Durango connects women and girls to the resources and programming that will help them reach their full potential in all states of their life.

What it reported doing in 2024

Small Business Consultation, Legal Aid, Womenade, and Morley Empowerment are a series of programs and services provided to individuals in our community to navigate barriers to success on the path to self-sufficiency. In collaboration with the Small Business Development Center, we supply resources and referrals to enhance womens entrepreneurship skills through consultations and office space. Legal Aid increases access to legal services for low-income women. Services include low bono consultations, pro se legal forms, legal education, and advocacy for justice, all aimed at improving access to justice. Local law offices donated $5,100 of in-kind services to WRC to support this program. Womenade is a grassroots initiative providing emergency financial assistance through one-time grants up to $700 for clients facing unexpected hardships. Womenade provided 39 clients with nearly $24,000 in aid, and the program has provided over $300,000 in aid to more than 650 individuals since its inception. Morley Empowerment combines financial literacy workshops, microloans, professional mentorship, and leadership development to equip women with the necessary skills and support to break barriers and lead positive change.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 96% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 82% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
