Overview

Mission

Hands Up Outreach Ministry is a faith-base organization that provides community support through social engagement and social justice with a purpose of improving the lives of District of Columbia residents by assisting residents in achieving their goals.

What it reported doing in 2022

Hosted our second annual Thanksgiving food giveaway where we handed out over 500 turkeys and fixings to individuals and families.

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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and expenses are high relative to revenue.
