Your Contributions Are Stewarded Wisely

Every gift you give through Compassion is handled with integrity and care. We follow strict financial guardrails to ensure accountability, transparency and the flexibility to invest wisely for long-term impact. Here’s a brief explanation of how funds are allocated:

In fiscal year 2025, 80% of every dollar went straight to program work through our local church partners — including education, medical care, nutrition, child protection and sharing God’s love with children living in poverty and their families.

Life-Saving Impact, Financial Transparency

In fiscal year 2025, our supporters enabled us to deliver spiritual, economic, social and physical care to over 2.4 million babies, children and young adults in poverty across more than 9,000 Frontline Church Partners and 29 program countries. Compassion continued to surpass $1 billion in revenue. We are a founding member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, an accredited charity with the Better Business Bureau's Wise Giving Alliance, and in 2024, Compassion was ranked No. 12 in the Forbes America's Top Charities List.
