Overview

Mission

Support career missionaries to share the life-transforming news of Christ's salvation with those who have never heard in order to make disciples and plant churches among all nations.

What it reported doing in 2025

Backpack Clinic is a missionary team which works in the Middle East to provide simple healthcare to those without the gospel. This group of missionaries learned Arabic and provided healthcare for multiple people in need of the gospel. Monies were used for travel, raising and maintaining prayer support with churches and other Christians, serving the needy, and helping with the emotional and spiritual health of the unreached and those working among unreached peoples. This agrees with our mission: Support career missionaries to share the life-transforming news of Christ's salvation with those who have never heard in order to make disciples and plant churches among all nations.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 76% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 92% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
