Overview

Mission

To provide practical, material and spiritual assistance to homeless individuals and families and neglected and abused children through rehabilitation programs for alcoholic and drug addicted men and women.

What it reported doing in 2024

Provided shelter to the homeless - 142,000 nights of safety and restful sleep; provided approximately 355,000 meals to the homeless; and provided drug and alcohol recovery programs. 81% of graduates stayed strong in their recovery, 85% of program graduates remained employed, and 85% of graduates have restored relationships.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 66% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 96% 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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and expenses are high relative to revenue.
