Food banks, shelters, soup kitchens and homeless shelters are all incredibly important but our focus is to break the cycle of systemic poverty here in the US. The poverty caused by debt is not widely understood with many believing it is caused by overspending and consumerism and we work to help people understand the causes of poverty and its effects. We do this through our program of webinars, in person seminars, church talks, one to one meetings, and by engaging with other community initiatives with like minded nonprofits. We also distribute literature and in particular our book, Nevertheless, free of charge, which details our founders struggles and overcoming his personal debt. 251191 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 6 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 5 5 false false false false true true true true true false false true true true false true true true false false Cedarstone 6305805750 209 E Liberty Dr Wheaton IL 60187 X Kevin Palau Chairman 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Brady Boyd Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 John Kirkby Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Joshua Shi Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kim Huffman Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 false false false 47581 280671 328252 Misc Income 999999 171 171 0 0 171 328423 171 0 0 182570 144230 12780 25560 5038 3980 353 705 14190 11210 993 1987 13289 10499 930 1860 806 685 40 81 17124 14555 856 1713 1774 1508 89 177 1233 1048 62 123 7508 3540 208 3760 2393 2034 120 239 4241 3605 212 424 534 40 1 493 20704 13184 408 7112 8748 7436 437 875 Program 28480 28480 0 0 Fees 6062 5153 304 605 Miscellaneous 4 4 0 0 314698 251191 17793 45714 86164 99895 86164 99895 6 0 6 X 86164 99889 86164 99889 86164 99895 13725 X false false false X 0 330144 293385 373943 315174 280671 1593317 0 0 330144 293385 373943 315174 280671 1593317 636498 956819 0 0 0 1593317 X 0 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Pt VI, Line 6 The sole member of the organization is Christians Against Poverty UK (a registered charity).
