Based on NPI's analysis, BUILD has been able to successfully graduate high school students and admit them to college through its innovative entrepreneurship-geared program. Securing a more diversified and stable revenue base as well as releasing additional details and metrics on effectiveness would further demonstrate the charity’s continuity and support BUILD’s program impact.

2. OVERVIEW OF BUILD’S ACTIVITIES
Founded in 1999, BUILD is a four year entrepreneurship and college preparatory program for disengaged, low-income
youth in urban communities who are not college-tracked, lack motivation and are often considered the “trouble-makers”
in the classroom. The program currently operates in the San Francisco Bay Area, Washington, D.C. and Boston and
partners with 18 schools to serve 929 students.
BUILD helps students develop their own business ideas, write business plans, pitch to funders and launch real businesses.
BUILD piques student interest by focusing on business concepts during the program’s first year. Once the students are
hooked, the program adds more academic components each year thereafter.
Program overview
BUILD’s program is unique in that it provides support through a three-pronged approach:
• Entrepreneurial Experience
• Academic Intervention
• Personal Support

Entrepreneurs 1 (E1) – Freshman year
Planning a business. Freshman students participate in a rigorous, five-credit elective for the entire academic year.
Students learn the tenets of time management, goal-setting and professional communication etiquette. In teams of 3-5
members, students develop comprehensive 20-30 page business plans based on ideas they create. The year culminates
with participation in BUILD’s regional Youth Business Plan Competition held in each of the region’s respective location.
Entrepreneurs 2 (E2) – Sophomore year
Running a business. Sophomores meet after school for 3-6 hours per week, for the entire academic year. In BUILD’s
Youth Business and Academic Incubator, they begin to operate their small businesses while learning negotiations,
business ethics, venture capital and more. Teams are assigned Venture Capital Advisors, who act on BUILD’s behalf to
finance student businesses with funding from BUILD. During the year, students have one-on-one meetings with BUILD’s
Academic Program Manager and academic mentors to maintain standards for college admissions.
BUILD | Nonprofit Investor Research 2
3. Entrepreneurs 3 (E3) – Junior year
Preparing for college. Juniors meet after school and are trained on advanced topics relating to college selection.
Students continue to operate their businesses, but focus more on getting into the college of their choice. In preparation
for college, students are trained on essay writing, interviewing, financial aid and standardized testing. To assist students
in the college selection process, BUILD staff members accompany students on college tours in various parts of the
country.
Entrepreneurs 4 (E4) – Senior year
Selecting and applying to college. Seniors work with BUILD mentors and BUILD’s College Counselors to identify their
schools, write admissions essays, prepare college applications and package their BUILD experience into a portfolio.
Students continue to hone their interviewing and presentation skills, in preparation for communicating with college
admissions officers. When possible, BUILD assists in arranging interviews with local BUILD alumni. BUILD staff provides
students’ parents with information about scholarships and financial aid resources through workshops and meetings.
BUILD has nearly 300 volunteer mentors who devote 90 minutes once a week to its students. All mentors have college
degrees and frequently are business or tech professionals from around the community. BUILD maintains a 3:1 student-
volunteer ratio and 91% of volunteers work with students throughout the entire school year.
PROGRAM RESULTS AND EFFECTIVENESS
Every day in the United States, 7,000 teenagers drop out of high school and nearly 54% of drop-outs leave school in their
freshman year. The nine out of ten BUILD students are from low-income families.
Under the BUILD program, 100% of seniors graduate from high school. 100% are accepted to college and 91% of the
class of 2010 was admitted to four-year colleges / universities. 80% of the participants are the first in their family and 95%
stay in college. There is a 142 point average SAT score improvement and 128% score increase on the business
knowledge exam.
BUILD’s students have been admitted to over 40 colleges and universities, including New York, Brown, Stanford,
Louisiana State and Hampton Universities, as well as University of California at Berkeley, Davis, Los Angeles and Merced.
BUILD has been nominated for several awards including FAST Company Social Capitalist Award (finalist) and the
Manhattan Institute Social Entrepreneurship Award. BUILD has been featured in the media including CNN, PBS, NPR,
San Francisco Chronicle, San Jose Mercury News, Bay Area Business Woman News and Palo Alto Weekly News.

• Merrill Lynch Growing Up CEO Award • KQED and Wells Fargo’s 2011 Women’s History

• Gates Millennium four-year college scholarship
In order to emphasize efficacy of BUILD’s program to a greater degree, BUILD should consider making available:
• The retention rate of students year after year. This would allow donors to see the BUILD program’s stickiness
and effectiveness as a four year program as opposed to other college preparatory programs that may have a
shorter time horizon.

This data provides a basis of comparison for how the BUILD program is helping students that may not have
otherwise graduated or been accepted to college.
TRANSPARENCY
BUILD is audited by Berger Lewis Accountancy Corporation, a San Jose based accounting firm. The organization provides
financial information from June 30, 2009 to 2011 in its financial statements and Form 990s on its website. The 2009 and
2010 annual reports are also available via the BUILD website. BUILD also provides details on its impact on its website.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
BUILD operates on a June 30 fiscal year. Due to timing issues of some major multi-year grants, BUILD saw a net loss of
$569,341 in Fiscal 2010. Reliance upon foundations, 70% of funding in 2010 according to the East Bay Express, may also
not provide as much diversification to BUILD’s funding sources. However, BUILD does have a corporate partnership
program that companies can become a member of with an annual contribution of $100,000. BUILD can count among its
corporate partners blue-chip companies such as AT&T, Microsoft and Yahoo!
The majority of BUILD’s expenses are comprised of program expense, which has increased as the organization continues
to grow. BUILD has reduced its management and general expenses as a percentage of total expenses from 11.3% in
Fiscal 2009 to 6.9% in Fiscal 2011. The organization’s fundraising expenses have increased 86.8% from Fiscal 2010 to
Fiscal 2011 as BUILD recently expanded into four partner schools in Boston, MA and needs to cover development costs.
According to its audit, BUILD is putting into place a national development team with the capacity to keep pace with its
growth and ensure financial sustainability over the long term.
Revenue Breakdown Expense Breakdown
$ in '000
Cost per beneficiary is a metric that can be looked at on a year-over-year basis. BUILD has improved its cost per
beneficiary from $6,035 in Fiscal 2009 to $4,702 in Fiscal 2011. As BUILD continues to develop a national team to
oversee the regional chapters, it will be interesting to see if the charity is able to realize synergies and whether the cost
per beneficiary increases or decreases.
