What Bridging the Gap Inc does
Mission
Our mission is to identify and address the needs of the community, take collective action, and build more resilient, confident and empowered youth, families, and communities.
As stated on its FY2022 Form 990-EZ.
Program
Our vision is to leverage our resources to offer crucial emotional and educational support to minimize learning loss and provide an escape from the pandemic's stressors. Each year we identified the needs of the community through student and family surveys and through trial and error. In each activity, a learning objective is established, and while also fun and enjoyable, we aim to expose the students to activities and experiences they would not have otherwise had access to. A summary of activities offered to participants include: Each day, we provide academic support to our students through homework assistance, quiz/test preparation, reading to them, or having them read to the staff or their peers, and having them assist their peers with homework-all of which encompass math and literacy support. Each month, we select students to assist the staff in carrying out some of our "most important" functions such as assisting during roll call, supper time, moving between locations within the school, and fire drill; also, being a part of the clean-up committee; and staff assistant. Also, each month enrichments are offered. We spend approximately 2.5 hours per week in the school's gymnasium…

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $315 to $18k (+5479%).
How it's funded, over time

99% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is.
