Overview

Mission

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization estimates that these leaders dispersed both education and material resources to their respective communities. The organization provides financial and educational assistance tailored to social needs and other avenues of assistance. Funds are dispersed to foreign organizations based on board evaluation. This evaluation process includes verifying both written and direct requests for assistance through documentation, financial auditing, and on-site corroboration.
