Overview

Mission

To empower women and girls through leadership development in a pluralistic environment through programs and related services.

What it reported doing in 2024

Residential program: provided permanent affordable housing to 39 single women. Provided resources and programs for women to achieve their economic and personal goals.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 89% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
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 - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and liabilities are high compared with assets.
