Approximately 75-80 percent of the organization's time is allocated to mentoring in some form- tutoring, holding health and wellness clinics at schools and libraries, site visits for youth, field trips to local businesses, etc. The activities are funded through corporate sponsorships, donations, and grants. Approximately 70 percent of the total budget is dedicated to programming for youth. The activity furthers our exempt purpose by educating and mentoring at-risk youth.
