Financial  Analysis



           Analysis of General, Program, and Trustee Giving over the last decade shows

           an undue dependence on Trustee Giving. (See chart below.) Despite peaks in
           2014-15 and 2018-19, even Trustee Giving shows a downward trend over the
           last decade, reflecting a sense of fatigue. General Giving stayed flat beween
           2011-12 and 2019-20. New strategies implemented in 2018-19 increased our
           average program giving from just $2134 to $6000.

           The Pro Sponsorship Program, implemented in 2020, is helping to fill the gap
           T   e P
           between Program Giving and program cost. Also, in 2021, General Giving
           has increased, exceeding Trustee Giving for the first time in a decade.
           As the charts on the previous pages demonstrate, in 2021, contributions
           exceeded operational costs for the first time in several years. Meanwhile,

           our social media outreach has reduced our cost per student reached by
           9,895% over the average cost between 2018-2020.

           new growth that will enable us to reach youth across our entire nation.
