Overview
Mission
Our mission is to help families reach their sufficiency goals to make the community a better place one individual at a time. Feeding the hungry; clothing the needy; and providing counseling and financial assistance.
What it reported doing in 2025
We coordinate with area social workers to provide packs of food each Friday for children who may not have enough food to eat over the weekend. This program known as KAP, Kids Assistance Program, receives both financial and material support from individuals, partnering churches, Sunday School classes, men's and women's groups, and gracious grantors.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
