Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Lotus Outreach is a nonprofit organization, incorporated in California in 2002, dedicated to ensuring the education, health and safety of vulnerable women and children in the developing world. Lotus Outreachs purpose is to create a more just, peaceful world where all people--regardless of nationality, ethnicity, religion, and gender--can lead rich, meaningful lives that are free of physical and structural violence.Lotus Outreachs pursuit of this mission is manifested in the following core program areas:Improving access to quality education for marginalized youth.Economic empowerment of parents and young women.Human trafficking and gender-based violence prevention and aftercare.Improving health and sanitation for vulnerable communities.From one year to the next, Lotus Outreach programs reach over 30,000 marginalized women and children in some of the poorest regions of Asia.

  • CATALYST: Through full scholarships (covering tuition, food, residence, utilities, class fees, and a daily allowance) of approximately $1,800 per girl, per year, the CATALYST program carries on the work of GATE by seeing through our long-term investment in girls education by helping to rebuild the intellectual class that was completely decimated by the Khmer Rouge only a generation ago.

    Expenses $97,390 · Grants $83,029

  • SKILLS TRAINING FOR EMPLOYMENT (STEP): Skills Training for Employment seeks to reduce poverty by providing income-generating skills to those who most need them. Women learn tailoring and men are taught electrical and mechanical skills. Without this ability to earn greater income, these women and men would remain in poverty, eking out a living on $4 per day as daily wage earners.

    Expenses $84,680 · Grants $72,193

  • BLOSSOM BUS:The Blossom Bus provides vehicles driven by trustworthy drivers to safely deliver young women to secondary school and college. We currently transport over 650 girls to secondary school and 40 young women to college. Until proper secondary schools and colleges become available to all villagers, the Blossom Bus aims to provide transportation to girls and young women at this transitional stage, leading the way in establishing female education as a norm rather than an anomaly.

    Expenses $78,905 · Grants $67,273

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.
