Overview

Mission

Our mission is to mobilize, organize, resource, and equip our partners to engage in serving others around the world. The world has many needs, both domestic and international. People everywhere are looking for assistance and encouragement. We need access to resources and instruction that will help meet those needs—but sometimes we need help finding them. We desire to go out, not only around the world but also across the street, to help others and extend hope and care. For some, you have the desire to go or to serve, but you are not sure where to start. Mobilization Resources wants to help you to do just that. It is time that we put action to our words!

What it reported doing in 2024

Helped pastors of local churches with strategies and resources for equipping the church to be on mission both locally and globally.

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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
