What it reported doing in 2024
The hope program - is a voluntary incentive program. Baby bucks are issued to clients for keeping their appointments and watching educational videos regarding pregnancy, childbirth, infant care, parenting, etc. The baby bucks can be exchanged for needed items such as maternity or baby clothing, diapers, wipes, personal care products (i.e. Baby shampoo, comb/brush), blankets and available baby furniture (bassinets, crib, etc). Cfrc, inc. Does purchase items for our clients if we do not have them in the thrift store. No money is exchanged and all items available are donated either new or used by groups and/or individuals. Pregnancy tests are offered free of charge to individuals requesting them. The tests are self administered by the client with the instructions provided.

With coordination between adoption agencies and cfrc, inc. We are able to obtain adoption education materials to have available for our clients. We also offer post adoption counseling to our clients.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 79% 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 most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
