Overview

Mission

Relief for underprivileged families in Phoenix, AZ

What it reported doing in 2025

Provided grant of 15000 to Hope Womens Center in Phoenix AZ to support their mission of providing basic needs and resources to vulnerable women and children in crisis.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
