Overview
Mission
We are urban church planters with a desire to plant 5 churches in each of the 5 boroughs of New York city. Each of the churches that are planted (or started) will connect people to god, connect people to people, and connect people to the mission.
What it reported doing in 2025
We provide resources to establish summer programs, provide food pantries, promo materials, counseling, pastoral care, educational resources, ad biblically based programs to the communities.
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
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
