Overview

Mission

Providing financial support for organizations working to meet the three basic needs of food, water, and shelter.

What it reported doing in 2025

Warm heart ministries (malawi)-our primary program is a feeding program focusing on children whose mothers have died or had twins/triplets that they can't produce enough food for. Our program served over 30 children in 2025. We provide formula monthly to these children until they are old enough to eat normal food. At that point we provide nutritional supplements and as they age we cover school fees as well as food for the families.-through that program we provide the families with seed and fertilizer a few times a year allowing for them to farm and produce food to eat and sell. -guardians have been provided funds to start businesses. Most start a business where they provide charcoal, cooking oil or make fried breads to sell.-building homes for the families in the program is a priority. Our goal is to either rebuild or build new homes for every childs family that is in our program. -sustainability project. We have provided funds to purchase 6 acres of land and will be using it for farming, building chicken houses and creating other community programs.

Operating model

Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 100% of its reported program spending out as grants.

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 expenses are high relative to revenue.
