Catholic Community Services

Overview

Mission

We are a Christian ministry caring for all in our community, built on faith, hope and kinship. Each year, Catholic Community Services hosts its Annual Fundraising Luncheon to showcase our impact from the past year and garner support for our mission through this next year. This event features a complimentary lunch, music performed by local artists and an inspiring, one-hour program in which we show how your donations and support allow us to help our vulnerable neighbors. Most importantly, it’s a time to enjoy the fellowship of hundreds of people of good will coming together on behalf of children, youth and families in need. Together, we can build a stronger community; one in which we can all flourish together. Please contact [email protected].

Operating model

Revenue model

Earned-program. 83% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.

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