What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025 we were able to provide 1,390 hours of psychological counseling to help children heal from trauma and build confidence; Over 61 dental and optometry treatments, giving the gift of healthy smiles and clearer vision; Essential food and medicine, bringing nourishment and hope to children in need; Counseling and mentoring 19 young people aspiring to attend college and/or trade schools. Sessions guided students to pursue paths that aligned with their skillset and passions; and we provided education support, including university tuition and mentorship programs that prepare students for higher education and skilled trades. One shining example is Marlen Gonzales, who is completing her final semester in computer science. Her dream is to work in cybersecurity-a goal made possible by people like you who believed in her potential.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
