Overview

Mission

Richmond chi alpha seeks to engage the university community with the teachings of jesus christ, through facilitating weekly worship services, small group bible studies, faith exploration, community service and cross-cultural experiences both in the richmond, va area and beyond.

What it reported doing in 2025

1. Cross-cultural trips - one of our chief aims is to see students prepared to live a life of global service. As such we desire to expose them to opportunities to use what they are learning at the university to serve. This year we took a group of students on a spring break trip to zanzibar, tanzania. This group served in an english language center, assisting classes and engaging in cultural exchange.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Member-benefit provider. The nonprofit used 95% of its reported program spending for member benefits.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
