Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Givelight Foundations primary exempt purpose is to provide shelter, clothing and food to children who have been orphaned by a natural disaster or other global crisis; to provide educational, spiritual and social services to the children residing in these orphanages.

  • GiveLight Foundation made strong stride in 2023 with the ultimate goal of increasing the number of children served eponentially by 2028. The highlight of the year was the opening of the newest home in Multan, Pakistan, with the capacity to care for 80 children, that was 100% donor funded. With 7 homes in operation and approaching its 20-year anniversary, GiveLight initiated a two-year process to focus on updating the infrastructure to ensure that operations are streamlined and that we are prepared to scale our operations over the next 4-5 years. To do this a full-time operational leader was hired and the Operations Director moved to full-time, bringing GiveLight to 3FTE with web and IT support through consultants. GiveLight continues to be supported by an extensive network of dedicated volunteers who plan and manage fundraising and outreach events, tutor and mentor the children in GiveLight Homes, and advise the organization. Effectively incorporating passionate volunteers has been a cornerstone of GiveLights success since the beginning that, along with prudent fiscal stewardship, has allowed GiveLight to make a profound impact in the lives of more than 1,000 children a year. We look forward with excitement to 2024 as our staff and volunteers continue with the preparatory steps to scale GiveLights program significantly.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
