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

  1. Implementing our program today

  2. Inviting the next child (and their supporter) into the program

  3. 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.

Deliver Hope to Children Like Jenikka

When she was just a little girl, Jenikka was diagnosed with blood cancer. Living in poverty, her family couldn’t afford the treatment she needed. 

Everything changed when her local church, with the help of Compassion, stepped in to provide the care that saved her life.

Your gift helps more children like her get the support they need to survive and thrive.
