OUR DONATIONS BREAKDOWN
50% INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTIONS
All S.R.E.I. Partners and Board Advisors contribute because we truly care about our mission. We thank our generous network and community of friends, family and colleagues that donate and pledge yearly to help make our scholarships happen.
50% COMPANY MATCHING
Our donors' wonderful companies usually match their contribution. We thank these corporations for their added support, and encouragement for their employees to participate in charitable work.
95% TO 97% ALL FUNDS AWARDED TOÂ STUDENTS
We maintain every effort to ensure the majority of our funds are distributed for the students. All S.R.E.I. Partners and Board members are volunteers and take no salary or reimbursements.
3% TO 5% ON ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS
With generous grants from Google for Non-Profits and Microsoft for Non-Profits, and TechSoup we've significantly reduced most administrative overheads by granting not only the organization but our students with free software and products. The remaining expense in this category is for fees associated with maintaining our 501(c) status, fees paid to fundraising platforms, and money exchange fees for scholarship transfers.
