Overview
Mission
To assist people who are persecuted and whose human rights are being violated.due to the confidentiality of our mission, we solicit directly to individuals versus large events or crowds. We rely on word of mouth as well as personal referrals. R&r represents the citizens' families and friends who have a member who is wrongfully imprisoned for either religious or political reasons. Religious freedom has been an underrepresented topic in our government and society. R&r strives to bring these important issues to the forefront by using quiet diplomacy to help these families and individuals to gain freedom after being imprisoned. We take on as many cases as we are able to, based on the likelihood of success and strong contacts within that particular area or subject matter. We will work each case on a continual basis until there is a resolution.
What it reported doing in 2024
We have continued to gain the release and resettlement of men and women who are imprisoned in other countries because of their religious beliefs. We continue to work on the three cases previously established and begun to work on additional cases.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% 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. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
