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.
We invest every dollar in one of three ways
Implementing our program today
Inviting the next child (and their supporter) into the program
Sustaining and enhancing our ability to deliver excellent programs
These investments are typically referred to as “Program,” “Fundraising” and “Administrative” expenses, respectively. Compassion’s rigorous annual strategic planning and budgeting process determines the resources allocated to Program, Fundraising and Administration. Our policy is to ensure that 75 to 82 cents on the dollar will always be allocated to Program expenses.
Comfort moms who are scared and alone, like Marie.
It had been weeks since she last heard from her husband, Christophe. Marie was starting to worry. He’d left their home in Togo to work on a faraway farm to earn the extra income his family desperately needed. But the money never came.
Just weeks later, Marie received news that her husband was dead. Heartbroken and four months pregnant, Marie could see only severe suffering in her family’s future. She worried her baby wouldn’t even live long enough to be named.
But then a friend told her about the Compassion Nurturers™ program at a local church that helps moms and babies to thrive.
You can help moms like Marie, who need Christ’s love and a compassionate, helping hand to protect them and their babies.
