Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Programs described in its return (3)
- $7,068 spent. Summer Investment Initiative - We served six young men students and two young adult men helpers 21-year-olds. We had the opportunity to invest over 300 hours of gospel -centered time together with them. This included community service job site visits biblical manhood discussions time in Gods Word prayer shared meals travel testimonies from trusted men and a week at Kids Across America in Missouri. We believe this kind of investment will have a lasting Kingdom impact on these young men and their families now and in the future.
- $5,857 spent. Practical Family Support - This includes help with rides for mothers to and from work and various places of need food and household products utilities rent school supplies gas general transportation needs before aftercare assistance and various practical needs as they come. We believe that this kind of support helps families get through difficult times and lean seasons. It also helps them to know they are not alone.
- $5,585 spent. Discipleship Mentorship - This is a continuation of what we began in the summer and extends throughout the year. We get students to and from school attend extracurricular activities take them on various outings share meals together teach life lessons through life-on-life interactions and provide a consistent ministry of presence in their lives. We believe that this encourages and builds confidence in these young men to know they have tangible examples of caring men actively in their corners
