Financial Summary |
 |
In 2008 revenues continued to grow, increasing 53 percent
from 2006. In 2007 YLLC also increased the number of inner
city children being served by almost 30 percent.
|
| There is no tuition for the at-risk children YLLC serves;
all expenses are covered by grants and contributions. |

| The
financial efficiency and accountability at Youth Life Learning
Centers are outstanding with less than 3% of expenses going
to fundraising costs. Seventy-five percent of every donation
goes directly to program expense.Youth Life Learning Centers
has continued to forge numerous partnerships with corporations,
foundations, churches, and individuals. |

|
| Cost of Saving a Child |
| The annual budget for one fully operating Youth
Life Learning Center is approximately $150,000. That includes
three teachers and one assistant serving 45 students in the
core after-school program and the many more who drop in during
the open tutoring hour. |
| Breaking that down further, if you took into account only
the 45 core students, that comes out to $3,333 per student
or $277 per month. That is the cost of saving an inner-city
child’s life in Nashville. That doesn’t necessarily
mean a child’s physical life though that may be the
case. It refers specifically to their future, their families,
their own children and grandchildren. |
