Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
Preparing youth to succeed in all of life's races.
-
Bolder Options delivers a wellness-based youth mentoring program that prepares middle school students to succeed in all of life's races. Each young person is paired with a trained volunteer mentor for a full year of one-to-one mentoring focused on physical, social, and emotional wellness. Youth set and achieve personal physical-wellness goals, build lifelong healthy habits around movement, nutrition, and mental wellness, strengthen community connection through volunteering and service, and reflect on their growth and celebrate success. After completing the first year, youth are invited to continue along Bolder Options' alumni pathway, which provides ongoing opportunities for leadership, service, and career exploration. In 2024, Bolder Options supported 73 youth in 1:1 mentoring relationships, recruited, screened, and trained more than 100 volunteer mentors, and had 548 alumni attendees at events. 1:1 mentoring pairs achieved a 90 percent match completion rate. Through its alumni pathway, Bolder Options continues to engage young people beyond their first mentoring year with opportunities for leadership development, service learning, college and career exploration, scholarships, and outdoor adventure learning. Alumni attendance included 10 graduates of the I Achieve program and 18 graduates of the I Believe program, programs that focus on early career exploration, life skills, and professional skill building. Across all Bolder Options programs, total event attendance reached 1,434, with an additional 644 family members participating in activities that strengthen family and community support around youth success. During 2024, Bolder Options also advanced development of a strategic framework to align its mentoring and alumni stages under one cohesive pathway. The framework integrates the eight dimensions of wellness and strengthens the organization's capacity for long-term impact and growth.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
