Overview

Mission

To help asylum seekers and asylees establish roots and maintain hope by providing them with accessible information, advocacy, and services that support and empower.

What it reported doing in 2022

In 2021, the board began to discuss the possibility of dissolution and termination given that more established nonprofits had found ways to effectively support asylum seekers during the pandemic. All board members also became unable to give time necessary to maintain and grow Finding Home and no new board members could be found. The organization was terminated on May 16, 2022.

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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
