Overview
Mission
To ensure long-term ongoing funding for mission hospitals.
What it reported doing in 2025
Continued provided funding for medical doctors, volunteers, supplies and equipment for hospital in Ghana. Provided support for Public Clinic by providing fund for the fuel of the vehicle used to reach out to isolated areas of Ghana.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- 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
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
