Overview

Mission

Share strengthens solidarity with and among the salvadoran people in el salvador and the u.s. In the struggle for economic sustainability, justice, and human and civil rights. As an organization of international solidarity, share works in partnership with communities and local grassroots organizations to implement our projects. All of our programs are guided by the following values: women's empowerment, leadership development, citizen participation, and environmental sustainability.

What it reported doing in 2024

Community development projects: we accompanied local grassroots organizations to implement food security projects with the participation of women and youth, and worked on reforestation, and environmental protection projects. We supported women in cancer prevention actions, and offered medicines and psychological care.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 92% 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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
