Overview

Mission

New oaks community, inc. (the organization) seeks to develop properties where families can live in community and unite in heart for the common purpose of loving children through foster care and adoption. Our desire is that abandoned or neglected children will find a home where they can experience the true love of god, to understand they were born with great purpose, and to be set free to live out their destiny. By planting seeds of unconditional love in their heart, the orphans of our times can become "new oaks" - firmly rooted in family and a contributing part of the community.

What it reported doing in 2022

Primary accomplishment of new oaks community in 2019 is the progressive restoration of the main house and surrounding property as a phase 2 step in building a foster care family community. This work is made possible by numerous individuals volunteering their time, talent, and resources to enable the vision/mission of new oaks community. Ultimately our program service work will fully begin once the buildings and property projects are complete. Expenditures of 118,698 for this restoration have been capitalized and added to the basis of buildings and land on the balance sheet.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 78% 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 revenue has declined or grown slowly.
