Overview

Mission

To come alongside our neighbors, meeting them wherever they are, by extending a helping hand and sharing the love of christ.

What it reported doing in 2024

We assisted with the emergency hurricane relief in Georgia, Florida, and North Carolina. We carried essential such as pallets of water, generators, fuel, propane, food, personal hygiene products, and medical supplies to the hardest hit areas of these states. We assisted over 1,000 people.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
