Overview

Mission

The terri schiavo life & hope network upholds human dignity through service to the medically vulnerable.

What it reported doing in 2024

Vigorous public advocacy of essential qualities of human dignity - which include the right to food and water, the presumption of the will to live, due process against denial of care, protection from euthanasia as a form of medicine, and access to rehabilitative care - as well as through 24/7 crisis lifeline service to the medically vulnerable.

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 95% 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
