Overview

Mission

To promote the physical and spiritual welfare of the citizens of the nations. Provide housing, meals and education for homeless children in the areas of our service (Congo, Nicaragua, Thailand and Brazil) We also provide supplies for schools and housing for orphans and children without means (Kinsasha Boys Home & Bangkok Girls Home)

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

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