Overview

Mission

Our Non-Profit formation is for the purpose of raising funds in order to build 1 or more schools in the Town of Duken, Ethiopia.

What it reported doing in 2021

Partly due to the pandemic, we were not able to begin earnest efforts for receiving contributions or fund raising during the 2021 Tax Year Filing period. We did receive 1 check from a contributor in the amount of 720.00. We have decided that this is not a good time for trying to build schools in a foreign country and am closing the foundation at this time. The director has decided to look towards retirement.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
No current program activity. The filing reports no program spending for the current year.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
