Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

To serve widows, orphans, and Christian adoptive families. Purpose is to help Christian adoptive families fund their adoptions by coordinating service projects to provide repairs and maintenance to the homes of widows.

  • Provided grants enabling Christian adoptive families to afford the significant expenses of adoption so they could provide a loving home for an orphan or orphans Raised funds for Christian orphan care ministries served needy widows through home maintenance repair projects. Both Hands Foundation projects provide an outlet for volunteers to fulfill James 1:27 in a practical way. To date, 1,447 projects have taken place in 45 states of the US serving 1,658 widows, helping 1,653 orphans become adopted, and raising funds for orphanages around the world. Each project starts with a team of volunteers who work on a widow's house, primarily doing light repair, painting, cleaning, and landscaping. The team of volunteers also sends out letters requesting sponsorship for their workday. The money raised through sponsorships goes towards adoption funding and orphan care. To date $21.4 million has been raised.

    Expenses $3,023,426

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. 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.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.

What this page reflects
