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. $237,686 spent. We believe our vision can most effectively be accomplished by our threefold ministry approach. First, reaching people with the love of God is the most essential thing we do. We bring the message of God?s redemption for mankind through the gospel of Jesus Christ. We do this by providing educational opportunities to underserved people. Last year, we increased our student enrollment by 27% and prospected three more communities that are in desperate need. Second, we provide aid and assistance to persecuted people. We operate a refugee facility where we house people who are displaced by the violence in their region. Last year, we increased the number of residents living in our facility by 38%. Thirdly, we raise awareness of the violence and persecution for those who do not know about it. We do this through traditional media, social media, email campaigns, and printed materials. Last year, we grew our audience by about 56% and over 50,000 people were directly influenced by our work.
