This document discusses the strategic triangle of an organization - legitimacy/support, operational capacity, and value. It provides details on the organization's donor support, volunteer numbers, expenses, growth rates, number of families served internationally, and corporate donors. It identifies issues with inconsistent capacity among affiliates, potential inefficiency in allocation of funds between programs and fundraising compared to peers, and an internal contradiction regarding the organization's identity that may be causing an identity crisis.
