Overview

Mission

An international missions ministry focused on establishing local mentoring communities which equip orphans and at-risk youth for success in life through spiritual development, positive role models, and practical life skills.

What it reported doing in 2025

In 2025, youthreach international served 76 orphaned or at-risk youth through five partner organizations, including ukrainians displaced to germany, and youth in belarus and zambia. In these three countries, 33 mentors are actively walking alongside youth sharing the message of hope in jesus christ. Additionally, 34 short-term missionaries were trained and sent.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 98% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 86% 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 the filed numbers largely add up. The filing reports few safeguards for money sent abroad and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
