Overview

Mission

Provide intervention for teen mothers, struggling families, elderly, and handicapped people.

What it reported doing in 2025

We have been working in Uganda with teen mothers providing support services to help these mothers keep their children and learn to care for them. As part of this program, we are in the process of raising funds and building a facility to house teen mothers. It will be a multi-year process to raise funds and complete the work. We are at the beginning stages. We worked with approximately 150 mothers and children this year.

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

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.
