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.

Programs described in its return (2)
- $11,600 spent. This year, the organization significantly enhanced its public engagement and fundraising capabilities by developing a new website. This platform serves as a vital tool for disseminating information about our mission and programs, improving accessibility for the community we serve. Some specific functions like volunteer sign-ups is still under construction. Concurrently, we actively conducted community outreach initiatives to secure donations essential for funding our exempt-purpose activities. These combined efforts in digital presence and direct engagement have expanded our reach and strengthened our ability to provide educational and sport related resources.
- This year, our organization actively engaged with youth in the local community by hosting four recreational events featuring Table Tennis and Pickleball. These events provided a fun and healthy environment for over 10 kids to participate in sports. This also served as an effective outreach opportunity, allowing us to introduce them and their families to our organization's mission to provide accessible recreational and developmental activities for youth. Through these activities, we fostered community spirit and increased awareness of our programs available to neighborhood residents.
