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 (3)
  1. $121,102 spent. Over 8 million petitions have been signed for the papal definition of the Fifth Marian Dogma. Please see our "Open Letter to Pope Francis for Mary" at the "motherofallpeoples.com" website for more information. The dollar figure for expenses is an estimate.
  2. International Marian Association ("IMA"): Please see the IMA website at "internationalmarian.com" for more information. The dollar figure for expenses is an estimate.
  3. $43,776 spent. Just One Dollar for Africa: The Order of the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts of Jesus and Mary conducted this activity prior to its merger into Vox Populi in December of 2019. Vox Populi continues this activity. Please see the website at "JustOneDollarforAfrica.com." The dollar figure for expenses is an estimate. The $43776 figure is the total expense figure for the "Just One Dollar for Africa" line of activity during 2024. Of the $43776, $43266 is the amount sent during 2024 to two well-known Catholic religious congregations in Africa. $510 is the administrative cost during 2024. The two Catholic religious congregations are known throughout the world for feeding and providing medical care to orphans, children, and families in need, the poor and the destitute. As stated at the "Just One Dollar for Africa" website, every dollar donated will be used for feeding and providing medical care. Thus, the administrative cost ($510) is added here only to show the total expense of this line of activity. Vox Populi does not deduct the administrative costs when sending the donated funds to the religious congregations in Africa. Please see Schedule F, Part II, Line 1(d) for more information.
