What it reported doing in 2025
Continue to act as webmaster on a volunteer basis for another organization of which I am a member. I visited Sierra Leone in February, 2024, met with officials at Njala University to discuss challenges with providing Internet access to students. Additionally, am engaging in efforts to purchase Satellite Internet access for possible deployment in Sierra Leone, as soon as the service is available there. I developed the website for a third organization, which included transferring the domain name registration and I personally assumed the expenses and decided to report them, not as FITI expenses, but as personal charitable contributions.
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 expenses are high relative to revenue.
