Mission and Program Overview

Mission

A "Watchdog", Investigating Religious Fraud and Excess, The Foundation is one of the nation's leading religious-media "watchdogs". Information requests are met regularly from local, regional, national and international print and television media organizations and podcasts. In addition, we regularly provide information to the exempt organization division of the IRS and other governmental and law enforcement agencies.

Investigating Religious Fraud/Low Income Housing-The overriding purpose of Trinity Foundation is to act as a catalyst for Christ's love by confronting self-absorption and excess in the church. As a public foundation, guarding against and exposing religious fraud and excessive misuse of donor funds falls squarely within our mission. As a practical matter, it also includes meeting needs when possible and/or facilitating solutions to problems brought to our attention such as hunger and homelessness.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Watchdog on Ministry Abuse (investigating religious fraud)--The Foundation is one of the nation's leading religious-media "watchdogs". Information requests are met regularly from local, regional, national and international media outlets as well as various government agencies--including the Senate Finance Committee. The Foundation maintains an 800-number help line and an online questionnaire for victims of televangelists. We have worked with organizations such as Prime-Time Live, Inside Edition, NBC Dateline, A Current Affair, ABC 20/20, CBS Sixty Minutes, the BBC, and ESPN. In addition, hundreds of newspapers, magazines and talk shows have used our services. The Foundation maintains a nationally recognized video archive of televangelism broadcasts, a print-media clip file and extensive direct-mail files on several hundred televangelists and other ministries. Donor Advocacy: Our website, www.trinityfi.org , facilitates the information needs of donors and victims of religious ministries. In May of 2005, we were asked by the General Council of the Senate Finance Committee to furnish reports on conversion and inurement to the committee on religious not for profit organizations. This consumed most of our activities from 2005 through 2011. To date, we have submitted 38 reports to the Finance Committee. In 2015 we helped the HBO program Last Week Tonight with John Oliver expose televangelist abuses of donor money. We continue to provide reports to the Exempt Organizations Division of the IRS on a regular basis.$0$31,415
Service Corps--specifically started as a practical resource for our community and for providing an on-going work rehabilitation program for the poor and homeless we care for. It now includes community service restitution for persons who are performing court-ordered hourly restitution--we provide a place for these persons to work off their mandatory hours.$0$18,849
Low Income Housing--In 1995 and again in 1998, Trinity Foundation acquired multifamily housing facilities in Oklahoma City and then in Dayton, OH to provide low cost housing for the poor and distressed. Alongside the housing provided, Trinity Foundation implemented programs to provide hands-on assistance to those tenants in need. In 2005 and 2009 these large projects were ended. However, we continue to investigate local opportunities to provide low-income housing in the North Texas area. We provided one free apartment for housing in 2018 and one low income apartment for housing.$0$9,425
Meeting Need/Shelter--The Dallas Project includes the traditional responsibility of religious organizations in meeting the basic needs of the poor and the weakest members of society. Though we have passed much of this program service to the Community on Columbia (Church), we continue to work hand in hand with them to meet these kinds of needs.$0$3,141

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 8

We received $4000 in rental income, shipping fees of $41, and interest income of $1 for a total of $4042 in other revenue.

Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16

In descending order of size--Auto related $5,992; religious watchdog activities such as State PI fees and data searches $4,514.74; homeowner dues for 2 apartments $2400; depreciation expense $1,515; finance charges from credit card $1,062.61; bank and fund transfer charges $243.82; computer software/hardware $183.96; office products $167.79; form 990 online expense for online filing $38; repairs $36.78; sales tax $5.94

Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20

We had trouble balancing our form 990EZ and are still investigating where the discrepancy is. Our best guess is that this $2,524 discrepancy can be traced to depreciation expense and/or disposal of old equipment. In order to balance this we are adding $2,524 as a positive change in net assets.

Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24

Inventory (Door magazines, CD's, DVDs) $11,049; 1999 Honda Accord $2,500; Equipment and Furniture $7304; less accumulated depreciation on equipment, car, etc. (minus) - $5,130 = $15,723

Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26

credit card debt $5,389; payroll liabilities at year end $407; misc amount owed $16; total liabilities = $5,812

IRS990ScheduleA/FactsAndCircumstancesTestTxt0We believe Trinity Foundation meet the facts and circumstances test for 2018 for the following reasons: Online support with positive comments: We have a great deal of public support on our YouTube channel exposing religious fraud and excess. Our Facebook page is beginning to generate quite a few followers. In spite of a small group of donors who have given to our foundation in the thousands-over the 2% mark, we have a comparatively larger number of small amount donors. We try to maintain mostly independent board members who have an interest in exposing religious fraud. Our investigators are available to the public and we receive frequent calls from victims of religious fraud asking us to investigate a large number of religious organizations. We have broad solicitation of revenue on our website and on social media (Facebook). We are also in the process of applying for grants to increase our revenue.
IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartVIGrp/ExplanationTxt0$672.50 from sales of inventory (old Door magazines, DVDs, etc); $248.98 program service revenue--yard care for low-income apartments; $40.57 for shipping inventory to customers; $1.54 refund. Note that "Other Income" has been updated from previous years to exclude "unusual grants" from contributions and is reflected here: In 2014, $125,000 in old debt was forgiven and is considered income. In 2016, $73,741 in old debt was forgiven as well. In 2017, a condo appraised at $50,000 was donated to Trinity Foundation.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0We received $4000 in rental income, shipping fees of $41, and interest income of $1 for a total of $4042 in other revenue.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1In descending order of size--Auto related $5,992; religious watchdog activities such as State PI fees and data searches $4,514.74; homeowner dues for 2 apartments $2400; depreciation expense $1,515; finance charges from credit card $1,062.61; bank and fund transfer charges $243.82; computer software/hardware $183.96; office products $167.79; form 990 online expense for online filing $38; repairs $36.78; sales tax $5.94
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2We had trouble balancing our form 990EZ and are still investigating where the discrepancy is. Our best guess is that this $2,524 discrepancy can be traced to depreciation expense and/or disposal of old equipment. In order to balance this we are adding $2,524 as a positive change in net assets.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3Inventory (Door magazines, CD's, DVDs) $11,049; 1999 Honda Accord $2,500; Equipment and Furniture $7304; less accumulated depreciation on equipment, car, etc. (minus) - $5,130 = $15,723
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4credit card debt $5,389; payroll liabilities at year end $407; misc amount owed $16; total liabilities = $5,812
