Points to look into
- It owes more than it owns.
These come from the organization's own tax return. There may be a good explanation; ask the charity.

Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

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.
