Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 99% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
