Mission and programs · 2024

• During the reporting year, WHFC continued programming focused on Orphan Care and Family Preservation. In terms of Orphan Care, our operational funding of two orphanages in Guatemala benefitted over 200 children, providing them with a holistic array of services including proper nutrition, stable and trained caregivers, and educational, medical and psychological services. WHFC also supported the orphanages efforts to reunify 25 Guatemalan parents with their children, by funding court mandated educational and support services. Additionally, WHFC supplied much sought after baby formula to 122 infants and sick children with a low likelihood of family care solutions in 10 orphanages in Burundi. Family Preservation programming continued to focus on stabilizing the family by promoting physical health and mental wellbeing, nutrition, education and financial empowerment initiatives. An overarching emphasis on gender equality ran through all WHFCs work, prioritizing a majority of female beneficiaries across programs. Approximately 2,670 individuals in Ethiopia, Burundi and Guatemala received services that ensure families remain intact, so their children dont fall into orphanage care. This reporting year, WHFC added 60 new families to our programming and expanded our Financial Savings groups, or Self-Help Groups, to 26, with over 300 participants. These Self Help Groups offer families emotional support as well as microloans to support business development, which has proven critical in lifting families forever out of poverty. Additionally, WHFC deepened and expanded its holistic wrap around medical, nutritional and educational services in Ethiopia, Guatemala and Burundi, providing impactful services to over 1,000 families as well as the broader communities. In Burundi, WHFC constructed three classrooms at the Community Center and started a tutoring program for over 300 students. WHFC also began renovating a local medical clinic that will provide the first health care access to this community once it opens in 2026. In Guatemala, a dental clinic, daycare and organic garden were established on the Community Center site providing additional wrap around services to the community. In Ethiopia, WHFC re-engaged with two medical facilities we previously built, sending a medical mission to Leku Hospital that offered three different trainings and surgeries; and renovating and replenishing supplies and medicines at the medical clinic in the northern town of Adwa that had been destroyed by war. WHFC also enhanced these facilities by funding operations for two mental health clinics, offering some of the first mental health support services in the country. The catchment area that our medical infrastructure serves in Ethiopia alone is well over 1 million. As such WHFC can claim over 115,000 beneficiaries due solely to our medical programming. In total, WHFC and our programming touched over 120,000 individuals around the world.

• WHFC provides a range of adoption related serices to clients throughout the United States. Expectant parents considering an adoptive placement of their unborn child receive counseling to support them in making the best decision for themselves and their child. Adoptive parents receive counseling and support from home study through post placement services. WHFC provides adoption placement services from six countries including the United States. During the year ended June 30, 2025, 48 children came home to their adoptive families. Five child-focused adoption subsidies were provided to assist families with the costs of adopting older and hard to place children who have serious medical conditions.

  Expenses $903,290 · Grants $25,000 · Revenue $931,649

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
