Overview

Mission

To help the needy and disadvantaged with material assistance in their lives

What it reported doing in 2024

Housing facilities acquired and operated to provide food and safe, secure shelter to homeless and others in need of assistance.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The program-spending lines do not add up, so the filing cannot show reliably whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and liabilities are high compared with assets.
