Overview

Mission

To promote equity and support, we provide multi-generational comprehensive programs for under-served, overlooked, low to moderate-income families, youth, and Black, Indigenous and people of color (BIPOC), by offering unique and inclusive trainings, food assistance, and family-oriented programs in a workshop format. Additionally, a focus on mentoring/coaching and special events to address critical community issues involving our youth that gets to the root cause of the challenges youth face including school dropout, lack of youth mentoring, gang violence, unemployment, financial education, health and wellness, self-improvement, and positive youth development.

What it reported doing in 2024

Ashton Langford Basketball Program - This is a five week program for teens to help them not only learn how to play basketball, but to also learn leadership skills, teamwork, cooperation, and opportunity to develop their interpersonal skills. We had over 75 youth complete the program.

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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
