Overview
Mission
Abba House Foundation exists for the express purpose of setting free the pre and post sex slave HIV children of Thailand by the power of the Holy Spirit through the love of Jesus, for the glory of God the Father. Housing, food, educational training, and spiritual devotions are provided.
What it reported doing in 2025
Abba House girls at risk to the sex slave industry of Thailand, ages 8 to 20, who are orphaned daughters of prostitutes, victims of rape and abandoned, making them targets to sex agents. The girls are housed 24x7, educated in life skiils with uniforms; additional activities include musical instruments, outreaches, field trips, which include nursing homes, crippled children's homes, HIV homes, villages, schools and church where the girls participate in serving others through singing and drama, some college education is provided as well. We have a total of 23 girls a year, educated at the local public grade school, high school, and some home school. We also teach them English as this is a tourist nation.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 86% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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
MIXED - Most voting board members are independent and total assets are large relative to annual expenses, but may not be spendable cash. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
