What it reported doing in 2024

Gabriel network impacts the lives of nearly 1,200 women and children each year. Gabriel networks helpline (800-angel-ok) answered calls from over 2,500 contacts. Gabriel network staff also provided direct material assistance, including childrens supplies and maternity items. We provide scholorships through the lorraine sparling scholarship, helping several women earn valuable job skills so they could provide a better future for themselves and their children.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 78% 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.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
