Overview

Mission

Making disciples among the children and youth of the nations.

What it reported doing in 2025

We are focused on reaching kids and families with the gospel; Discipling them in Christ and releasing them as his messengers in their homes and communities. The costs incurred for this program were for Evangelism.

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.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and the filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars.
