Overview

Mission

Quaker Haven exists to support youth and family ministries of Indiana and Western Yearly Meetings of the Religious Society of Friends and the wider body of Christ. Most significant activities are summer youth camping programs, hosting Yearly Meeting sessions, and family camps.

What it reported doing in 2024

Christian Programming: Meetings of religious organizations were hosted in the dining hall and activities center for banquets and religious programs. Approximately 15 such events were hosted over the year, serving over 1119 guests. Examples include the passion play and Indiana Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends held the annual business sessions including times of worship and celebration with the general business of the association of churches. Other groups served included service organizations, schools, churches, and parachurch organizations. (15 events)

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 63% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
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. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
