Overview
Mission
Increasing Cultural Understanding
What it reported doing in 2025
We took a cultural immersion trip with 10 participants from the community. 3 presentations were given in our local communities from what we learned on the trip. In addition, we held 123 community events that gave people a chance to learn about first hand experiences of immigrants. We also created a traveling exhibit that highlights the stories of women keeping the home fires buring while their loved ones are working on dairy farms in our community. It has traveled to 6 communities so far and we are scheduled to show the exhibition in 6 more communities in our local area this year.

The verdict
REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
