What it reported doing in 2024
Victory mission teaches those experiencing homelessness and coming from challenging life circumstances how to be independent and gives them the tools to rebuild their lives. Victory does this through three keyways: outreach programming, workforce development training, and long-term programming called "restoration". Outreach services include emergency shelter, mobile pantry, and street outreach. Workforce development training includes workready bootcamp (work ready assistance), vocational service classes, and paid internships. Restoration focuses on walking with individuals for at least a year of their life focusing on 5 key areas: spiritual, personal, relational, vocational, and financial. These areas focus to engage potential individuals with food, shelter, and clothing while developing long-term relationships focusing on lasting and forever transformation. Life-long victory is available for everyone.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 81% 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
