Overview

Mission

To create a community of hospitality by offering refuge and restoration on the Mississippi gulf coast.

What it reported doing in 2024

Seashore mission's day shelter program is to create a community of hospitality that empowers the houseless and residentially challenged to live lives of purpose, dignity and service. We envision a community of biblical hospitality and healing where there is hope for the hopeless, peace for the weary, and refuge for all.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 89% 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

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
