Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $104,836 spent. THE INFINITY SQUAD IS A MATH MENTORSHIP PROGRAM BETWEEN HIGH SCHOOL AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO PAIR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WITH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS TO MEET ON A REGULAR BASIS DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR AND DEVELOP BOTH INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND AN AFFINITY FOR AND ENJOYMENT IN MATH. IT IS DESIGNED TO RUN AT A LOCAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, AFTER SCHOOL, FOR 20 WEEKS DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR FROM AROUND OCTOBER UNTIL APRIL. DUE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC, WE HAVE ADJUSTED THE ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING TO GO VIRTUAL. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS MEET VIRTUALLY ONCE/WEEK FOR 30 MINUTES WITH THEIR MENTEES TO CONNECT, PLAY MATH GAMES, AND GO OVER MATH HOMEWORK.? AS MANY SCHOOLS HAD TO CANCEL TRANSITIONAL PROGRAMMING FOR 8TH GRADERS ENTERING HIGH SCHOOL, MEMBERS OF OUR TEEN LEADERSHIP BOARD DEVELOPED A MENTOR-BASED PROGRAM FOR THESE 8TH GRADERS AND THEIR PARENTS. THE 8TH GRADERS WERE EACH PAIRED WITH A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT SO THAT THEY AND THEIR PARENTS COULD ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT MATH CLASSES AND PREPARATION AS WELL AS OTHER ASPECTS OF HIGH SCHOOL LIFE. THE POPULARITY OF THIS PROGRAM EXPLODED AND WAS OFFERED IN 12 DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES. THE ORGANIZATION ALSO HOSTS THE INTERNATIONAL MATH CONTEST WHICH IS A 30-MINUTE ONLINE CHALLENGE BASED ON LEADING MATH CURRICULA FROM ACROSS THE WORLD.
