Overview

Mission

The Universal Love Alliance Foundation raises funds on behalf of Universal Love Alliance an NGO in Uganda.

What it reported doing in 2025

The largest single component is direct contributions to the ULAF Bank Account by ULAF Board Members.

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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
