Binyan Chaim

Overview

Mission

Binyan Chaim Inc. (Binyan Chaim) is a faith-based organization staffed entirely by unpaid volunteers. It is the goal of the Board of Directors to strive diligently to help pay or needy prospective Jewish couples to get educated on the laws of taharat hamishpacha (family purity) and mikvah (the ritual bath). We will be mindful that the source of our income is from charitable donations made by individuals, synagogues and organizations who expect that donations will be used as prescribed in the Binyan Chaim Bylaws. Toward this end we will continuously monitor our expenses and will spend carefully. Further, we will protect and respect the privacy of our clients and honor their humanity in all interactions by treating them as we would wish to be treated.

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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
