Impact evidence

Programs described in its return (1)
- $526,286 spent. The organization successfully raised $1,234,659 primarily in 2019 with the proceeds to be used for the medical care of the poor in Syria. The funds as of December 31, 2020 have not been deployed and the organization has not incurred any expenses. This is due to the civil war going on in Syria eliminating the original sources for the funds to be deployed and the inability to locate reliable avenues to deploy the funds. The officers and Board of Directors as of the beginnning of 2023 have found reliable avenues to deploy the funds as well as obtain quotes for medical equipment. The United States government has also provided guidance in finding reliable avenues to deploy the funds.
