Financial Review:

Bridgepoint Foundation is a medium-sized charity with donations and special events revenues of $2.7m in F2016. Administrative costs were 10% of revenues and fundraising costs were 5% of donations. As such, for every $1 donated, 85 cents go to the cause. This falls within Charity Intelligence’s reasonable range for overhead spending.

Overhead costs have decreased significantly over the past 5 years, with the amount going to the cause raising to its current level of 85% from 32% cents in F2012. This can be attributed to the foundation’s change in purpose, which involves less overhead costs.

Bridgepoint Foundation has funding reserves of $10.6m, of which $3.9m are donor-endowed. These funds can cover annual program costs 6.0 times (4.3 times excluding donor-endowed funds).
