Overview

Mission

Educational and charitable

What it reported doing in 2025

Distribution of Supplies: (Jamaica, South Africa, Trinidad): KTT issued an urgent call to help our partners and communities in Jamaica after the devastation of Melissa, a Category 5 hurricane. Essential supplies of clothes, shoes, food, water, tents, power generators, flashlights, toiletries, diapers, feminine products, etc. were donated. In South Africa, KTT donated school supplies, 7 laptops, shoes, and clothing for Jehovah Jirah Orphanage Center (JJOC), a home for over 30 children, and distributed clothing to the homeless. KTT partnered with a church in Trinidad, providing teaching/learning materials and supplies for children attending VBS.

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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
