“Our irs form 990 is electronically emailed to all officers and board members prior to filing it. The executive director coordinates this and receives any comments or concerns. It is additionally reviewed by our audit review committee consisting of the executive director, the treasurer and an independent member.”

“Our conflict of interest policy is monitored by three individuals - the president, director and the comptroller. If any potential conflict of interest issues become evident, whether before or during a transaction, then it is communicated to various organizational leaders for monitoring, separation of decision making and any other actions needed to preclude a conflict. Any potential conflicts of interest are fully documented, reported to all board members and included in the board of director minutes.”

“The board of directors assigns a member to perform a compensation review for the president and any other key personnel required by irs regulations. This board member uses various internet resources, including the evangelical council for financial accountability annual compensation review to compare our compensation. A report is then given to the entire board to insure full disclosure.”

“More than 315 missionaries (not including spouses and children) serve in over 55 countries to improve the spiritual, educational and physical conditions of the world. 2014 ended with missionaries in every continent. We estimated that they collectively impacted over 8,000 people a month. A portion of the work being done includes: medical clinics, theological schools, linguistic efforts, a home for abused girls, bookstores, pastoral training, audio and video recording, bush piloting, orphanage management and care, care for the elderly, economic development, water well development, home construction for the poor, training the youth and much more. The pressures that missionaries face in their country of service can create a great degree of stress on them. We focus on minimizing the stresses by providing a myriad of services including financial support, communication support, data services to donors and missionaries, and most importantly, pastoral care. Our organization recognizes that we must help the missionary to maintain a link to people within the united states who believe in the work they are accomplishing. All services provided, except the pastoral care, help the missionary in the day-to-day support efforts needed to maintain their work. Pastoral care is focused on providing christian-based spiritual care to help them maintain a healthy mental approach to their work. Our ministries are broad in their approach. In the jungles of south america, we provide aviation support, indigenous church leadership training, economic development, nutritional health services, christian church development, leadership training, orphan care and life skill training, medical care, education to rural children as well as racial reconciliation efforts. European based ministries focus on using sports ministries to help troubled athletes, developing reconciliation venues, providing family dynamics training, orphanage support, managerial support in developing countries and using satellite tv programming to encourage christians throughout europe, the middle east and north america. Asian ministries include support for women escaping the sex trades, church leadership training, orphan care, economic development and counseling to help impact many nations. North american ministries include pastoral development, church planting, prison ministries, expatriate student support, youth programs and anti-gang programs. These ministries impact scores of people in more than 55 countries. We have continued to have a sustained growth over the past 20 years in the number of missionaries supported and countries impacted. Our home office staff focuses on providing a high level of support while keeping the operational costs to a minimum. Our desire is to impact generations of people now and in years to come with positive christian principles while providing practical support to the poor and needy.”
