Overview

Mission

Educate, equip, and strengthen organizations including non-profits and congregations.

What it reported doing in 2024

Parish resource center ("prc") exists to help organizations which, although diverse in size, mission and geographical location, seek to serve the common good in their community. Prc shares resources and ideas by providing services and programming to congregations and non-profits. Our aim is to increase the capacity of their staff, volunteers and members so that they can more effectively deliver their organizational goals and mission. Prc provided over 90 workshops to more than 1,000 individuals on many areas of organzational life during the year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 79% 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
