Overview

Mission

To provide humanitarian relief and programs to help, assist, and empower citizens in their communities for sustainability and human development.

What it reported doing in 2024

Humanitarian and Disaster Relief: The Organization built permanent homes for the homeless and neediest displaced families living in Yemen. Other projects supported and funded have included the distribution of blankets and mattresses for the refugees and displaced families, educational supplies and books, clothing and shoes for orphans, and Udhiya/Qurbani meat to those in most need.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Grant intermediary. The nonprofit sent 90% of its reported program spending out as grants.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad.
