Finances & Transparency

Stewarding every gift with integrity and accountability.

Hope Ministries is a privately funded, Christ-centered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization. We rely solely on the generosity of individuals, businesses, churches, foundations, and civic, social, and community organizations in our area to support this life-giving ministry.

Funding Sources*

The majority of our support comes from individuals, with additional gifts from businesses, foundations, and churches. We choose not to receive any funds that could compromise our mission, so that we can freely share the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone who comes through our doors.

We consider our donors true partners in ministry, and stewardship of God’s resources is one of Hope Ministries’ core values.
