Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $53,036 spent. 2024 was more of a reorganization year. With the bankruptcy of the major entity that received support from the Foundation, we needed to determine the direction of the Foundation going forward. Traditionally, the main program was a grants program to affiliated organizations with the Fairport Baptist Homes. With the bankruptcy, no grants were given to that organization. There were a number of grants given to a new organization called Fairport Perinton Senior Connections. This not for profit was created to house programs of the FBH Community Ministries company that the buyers of all the bankrupt corporations did not want. After the closing on the bankruptcy, the new buyer gave the programs to the new corporation.
