Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Outreach services to homeless, disadvantaged and at-risk individuals and youth, including a food bank, GED training, ESL teaching, after-school tutoring and group youth mentoring programs. ROP provides direct services to address hunger, homelessness, lack of education, underemployment, language barriers, addictions, and hopelessness.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Outreach services to the homeless and disadvantaged and at-risk youth, including a food bank, GED training, ESL training, after-school tutoring and group youth mentoring programs.

  • Youth Ministries is made up outreach to Children (Selah) and Teens (Kairos). SELAH is ROP's children's program that exists with the goal of providing quality, Jesus- centered programing for inner city and refugee children on and around East Colfax. The Teen Ministry at ROP exists to provide a space of belonging, safety, and community for the teens of East Colfax.

    Expenses $220,410 · Revenue $154,909

  • The ROP Food Bank seeks to provide food for people at risk of hunger living along Colfax in Northwest Aurora and Northeast Denver. Every Tuesday, the Food Bank provides groceries and other resources to many families and individuals in need, as well as provides food to individuals and families in crisis on an as-needed basis throughout the week. ROP's Food Bank serves individuals from 3 counties {Adams, Arapahoe and Denver}.

    Expenses $83,716 · Revenue $44,527

  • The Work Readiness/GED Ministry strives to enhance employability of those within the community we serve. We provide tutoring to prepare students for the high school equivalency test (GED or HiSet), assist participants in creating effective resumes, train in effective interview techniques, and help participants develop soft skills that employers seek in potential candidates. Work Readiness helps individuals with job retention, mentoring, and assigning accountability partners, and provides life coaching and life skills. Our ESL Program offers free English classes in Aurora to the refugee and immigrant population, in the surrounding neighborhoods of ROP, to help them overcome the language barriers they face living in the United States. Interested participants are assessed on their current English skills and then placed into one of our four class levels (Basic, Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3). Each class meets twice a week for two hours and students work on English proficiency in speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

    Expenses $28,767 · Revenue $38,783

  • Hospitality Center - The Hospitality Center, opened in December 2023, addresses the increase of individuals experiencing homelessness by providing a space of warmth and welcome, where guests can connect with caring staff and volunteers, and be linked to necessary resources. Guests receive access to hot showers, clothing, snacks, backpacks, and other basic needs. Along with meeting needs, the Hospitality Center serves as an entry point to social services that empower, encourage, and equip struggling individuals.

    Expenses $18,306 · Revenue $21,450

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.

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.
