Overview

Mission

To respond to the physical, social and spiritual needs of the hispanic community with a focus on spanish speaking, high risk pregnant women and sick or disabled babies and children. Our goal is to help them find appropriate healthcare to meet their physical needs and to minister to their spiritual needs.

What it reported doing in 2024

We provide transportation, translation, insurance, eligibility counseling and care management services to over 200 families, attending over 20 medical appointments per month and driving in excess of 5,000 miles annually. We hold a weekly session for the mothers of the families we minister to, providing daycare for their special needs children while the mothers focus on sharing best practices, coping skills and receive bible study. We coordinate medical appointments and help parents understand treatment protocals and communicate with school nurses to assure continuity of care that would not otherwise exist because of language barriers. We provide emotional support to parents of medically fragile children and to high risk pregnant women.

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.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

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.
