Overview

Mission

Our primary exempt purpose is to offer social services including support, mentoring, meals, job seeking, obtaining and maintaining a job, meeting educational needs and desires, and various other forms of assistance. Our target population is individuals reentering society after incarceration in either prison or jail. We also offer services to those that are in recovery from addiction and want to restart their lives.

What it reported doing in 2018

We received a $250.00 grant from the Sam's Club store in Decatur, IL to go towards further adult education. We still have this amount saved and have carried it over into 2019 as we have not had a client that is eligible for these funds at this time.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 87% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
