Over the past 24 years, the positive influence of HIM has steadily increased, driven by enduring relationships and strategic investments that continue to bear fruit across generations and communities. HIM supports a global network of partners in countries including India, Pakistan, Nigeria, Ghana, Zambia, Nicaragua, Bangladesh, Nepal, Brazil, Philippines, and others. Through these partnerships, more than 2,000 children in over 50 schools and orphanages receive direct support in the form of education, food, shelter, and spiritual care. To address poverty and empower vulnerable populations, HIM funds and supports a variety of livelihood and development programs. HIM launched sewing and tailoring schools in India, Pakistan, Nigeria, and Ghana to provide vocational training and economic independence for women and families. A new chicken farming enterprise was also started in Zambia to help sustain a local orphanage and school with both nutrition and income. In Nigeria, HIM funded the creation of a Theological and Technological College and Seminary to equip leaders with both spiritual and practical skills for ministry and community development. In the same region, HIM has dug 11 water wells to provide clean, life-saving water to thousands of people in rural areas. Our programs also provide critical resources-including scooters, bicycles, laptops, and motorcycles-to help partners reach isolated communities. These tools allow indigenous leaders and missionaries to extend education, healthcare, and spiritual outreach to thousands more. In total, more than 180,000 people are positively impacted each year through HIM's education initiatives, livelihood programs, church planting efforts, and humanitarian assistance. Despite facing challenges such as poverty and religious persecution, HIM and its partners continue to grow networks of home churches, ministries, and mission programs that serve those most in need. Through practical aid and compassionate outreach, HIM is committed to breaking the cycle of poverty by meeting physical needs, expanding access to education, and equipping individuals to transform their own communities. 0 0 0 580686 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 1 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 5 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 X X Byron Whetstone 9135635833 PO Box 23 Shawnee Mission KS 66201 Byron Whetstone President 0.5 0 X X 0 0 0 Lance Hart Treasurer 0.5 0 X X 0 0 0 Brian Seregi Secretary 0.5 0 X X 0 0 0 Ruth Cousins Board Member 0.5 0 X 0 0 0 Mark McCullough Board Member 0.5 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 458508 0 458508 0 12366 0 0 12366 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2360 0 5163 0 -2803 0 -2803 0 0 -2803 0 0 468071 0 0 9563 18239 18239 32687 32687 245973 245973 207414 206560 854 0 4225 3997 228 0 25237 0 25237 0 2042 0 2042 0 50739 41739 0 9000 20508 0 0 20508 32052 17621 14431 0 24302 841 22341 1120 22000 0 22000 0 10451 10451 0 0 2578 2578 0 0 2647 0 2647 0 1706 0 1706 0 702800 580686 91486 30628 275234 14809 347528 360067 23689 22073 55982 43919 105 12063 85244 102110 731800 511122 17415 16608 17415 16608 X 280160 157958 434225 336556 714385 494514 731800 511122 -234729 14858 0 0 0 0 X X 0 0 0 X 767783 738225 728641 640039 458508 3333196 767783 738225 728641 640039 458508 3333196 851092 2482104 777 1503 2557 9081 12366 26284 3359480 6430 0.73884 0.73741 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 22945 10882 12063 0 33037 33037 0 12063 1 Central America and the Caribbean 0 0 Grantmaking Grants to recipients located in the region. 3213 East Asia and the Pacific 0 0 Grantmaking Grants to recipients located in the region 2750 Europe (including Iceland and Greenland) 0 0 Grantmaking Grants to recipients located in the region 13285 South America 0 0 Grantmaking Grants to recipients located in the region 2000 South Asia 0 0 Grantmaking Grants to recipients located in the region 173403 Sub-Saharan Africa 0 0 Grantmaking Grants to recipients located in the region 51321 0 0 245972 Funds used for food assistance programs for children.
