Overview

Mission

Delivering life changing care in rural Guatemala through a regional eye center, general medical and surgical care, maternal health and child nutrition programs.

What it reported doing in 2024

We send 30+ medical teams with approximately 300 volunteers to Hospital de la Familia each year. These volunteers provide clinical and surgical care to patients, and educational training to medical providers in an impoverished area of western Guatemala. The hospital treats approximately 20,000 patients each year. The main focus areas are general surgical care, vision care, and maternal and child health.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 65% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 59% for direct work, and 41% for grants.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
