Mission
We are a global Christian organization committed to partnering with indigenous peoples, local churches, and community-based organizations to make disciples of Jesus Christ and help end extreme poverty. We serve indigenous pygmies, vulnerable children, and struggling families in some of the world's poorest and crisis-affected regions, where war, hunger, and disease have created deep needs. Our ministry shares the love of God and brings hope through practical and spiritual support. We provide education and nutritious meals for children, equip local leaders, and promote sustainable community development. Our impact includes outreach to more than 20 schools in Kenya, equipping over 300 farmers with training and seeds, supporting over 40 women with sewing skills, and supporting more than 1,300 students with educational needs, primarily in Kenya and DR Congo.
Each tax year counts once: when a return was amended, only the latest return for that period is used below (superseded returns stay listed, greyed, under Finances).

Highest-paid independent contractors
No independent contractors reported.
Who gave
Contributor names are not public for this form type.
Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.
Finances
Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Where the money went
Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
