Overview

Mission

Medical and education program in India.

What it reported doing in 2015

Hope Rehabilitation Center in Chennai, India has been helping disabled, disadvantaged and destitute children and adults in India for over 39 years. Hope Rehabilitation center (HRC) is a project of MEAP Association of India. HRC has focused in two main areas. 1) Helping handicapped children by providing surgeries needed to straighten their limbs, the braces and calipers needed to learn to walk on their own, the physical therapy needed to strengthen their arms and legs and the education needed to succeed in life. 2) Training handicapped young men and women to be entry level computer technicians and training handicapped young women to be office workers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
