FINANCIALS
The financial efficiency and accountability at Youth Life Learning Centers are outstanding with less than 7% 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. 
In 2007 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.

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.
