Overview

Mission

Inspired by Gospel values, we provide person-to-person service to our needy neighbors covering such things as utility and rent bills, clothing, motel costs, prescription costs, propane costs, and other miscellaneous expenses. We also provide counseling and comfort to needy persons through our person-to-person visits and encounters.

What it reported doing in 2024

Emergency financial assistance for utilities, rent, prescriptions, motel bills, and other miscellaneous expenses. Society members made 350 home visits and 1334 other in-person visits with neighbors in need. In total, we helped 3687 family members through our home and other visits during our fiscal year.

Distribution model

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
