Overview
Mission
The goal of the organization is to make a difference by aiding those who may be struggling with medical expenses due to illness.
What it reported doing in 2025
Every year we host an annual fundraising event in our local community center. We have a meal, silent auction, and raffles during the night. All money raised is used to help local individuals within a 40 miles radius of Hankinson offset their medical expenses. Some of this money is also set aside to donate to organizations like Sanford, Essentia Health, Caring Bridge, CHI Health at Home, and Roger Maris Cancer Center.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue.
