What it reported doing in 2025

Jesus loves to help continue ministry efforts all year round, we contacted families we have met through our summer catalyst events for an opportunity to take part in our thanksgiving box deliveries and family christmas event. For thanksgiving we partnered with a local church and with the use of 10 volunteers we delivered 70 meals to families in kalamazoo and portage. For christmas through many generous individual and corporate donors we were able to host 91 families and helped over 350 children have a happy christmas. Through the help of over 50 volunteers, toys, new towels, toiletries, educational supplies, socks and underwear, and hats and gloves were provided to each child participant, along.. Each family was also given the opportunity to have a hot meal while they waited to shop. Costs included food, toys, toiletry items, hats and gloves, socks and underwear.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 95% 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

MIXED - 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.
