Overview

Mission

200 million flowers, inc. Serves adoptive families and birthmothers in Mississippi through domestic independent and agency placements. 200 million flowers also recruits, trains and supports parents to become foster parents to children and youth in Mississippi foster care. We also perform home study and post adoption counselling services for adoptive couples. 200 million flowers has entered into an agreement with the Mississippi department of human services to create a photo exhibit of youth waiting to be adopted called the Mississippi heart gallery. The heart gallery is a portable display set in the lobbies of churches, business and other public buildings to find potential adoptive parents for these waiting youth.

200 Million Flowers is a digital platform that publishes articles on relationships, intimacy, and personal growth. The site covers topics such as emotional connection, communication, and sexual education, offering tips and advice for couples. It serves a general audience seeking to improve their romantic relationships through accessible online content.

Operating model

Revenue model
Investment-supported. 81% of the money available for current operations came from recurring investment income.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
