The initiatives include relief support of basic needs, such as medical, food and clothing for families, education, clean water, home building, widow support and Audio Bibles. Basic needs/relief support: In 2024, Bread to the Nations provided for the basic needs of food, clean water, clothing and medical expenses for vulnerable children and their families. This amount also includes relief support to families living in an area impacted by gang activity. The total cost of support expensed to these families, including the cost for a social worker and accountability person, was $24,926. The ultimate goal is to see each family become independent and provide for their own children some day. 0 24926 Education: Bread to the Nations (BttN) partners with some of the best schools in Haiti, to provide education for children. In 2024, BttN supported the cost of tuition for 38 students. Most of these students come from vulnerable situations and would not be in school or attending a poor quality school if not for the support of BttN. BttN contracts with local Haitians to lead this initiative. They are responsible for keeping all records on the children and their progress in school with academics and attendance. We provide additional tutoring and support to the families when necessary, all to ensure success in the program. In 2024, two of our students received their high school diploma, one student entered her second year in nursing school and two other children started trade schools and have started businesses on their own initiative. All of this is possible through the support of BttN and encouragement of its leaders serving on the ground in Haiti. The total amount spent to support the education initiative in 2024 was $14,573. This includes tuition costs, tutoring, books, uniforms and contract employee expenses. 0 14573 Home Building: Bread to the Nations helped complete a building project in 2024 in the Dominican Republic. The new home construction began in 2023 for a widow part of the local Haitian church. The home will be a safe shelter from the storms and better security from predators. The total amount expensed in 2024 to complete this home was $800. 0 800 Clean Water - Bread to the Nations helped support the installation of 100 water filters in homes in Haiti. There is a lack of clean water in the area we serve in Haiti. This will help more than 100 families and their neighbors have access to a clean water source. This is important especially during a time when water born illnesses, such as cholera are on the rise in Haiti. 0 10400 Audio Bibles: In 2023, Bread to the Nations sent Audio Bibles to a Haitian church in Chicago where many of their newest attendees do not read or write. The Bibles are in Haitian Creole and have been distributed to adults. The Bibles are a tool for evangelizing and to help share the Gospel. They have been life changing for many individuals and their family members. Total cost was $322. 0 322 Bread to the Widows: Bread to the Widows is a new initiative for Bread to the Nations in the Dominican Republic. A BttN leader along with the local pastor we partner with visit 5 widows in their homes each month to check on their overall well being. They bring a bag of food staples and help cover costs of medications. BttN leader also checks their vital signs and documents changes in their health. The total cost for this program in 2024 was $2,601. This amount covered transportation and travel expenses for our leader and the pastor, our leader's contracted salary, medications, doctor appointments and food. 0 2601 53622 Tamara Hagstrom Director 25 0 0 0 Steven Hagstrom Chairman 1 0 0 0 Natasha Ferguson Secretary 1 0 0 0 Rachael McCleary Treasurer 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MN Tamara Hagstrom 2375 Highland Ct SW Alexandria MN 56308 3208155348 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 64882 72781 84136 90647 71206 383652 0 0 0 0 64882 72781 84136 90647 71206 383652 64423 319229 383652 0 X 64882 72782 84136 90647 71206 383653 64882 72782 84136 90647 71206 383653 383653 64882 72782 84136 90647 71206 383653 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 Bread to the Nations supports several initiatives in Haiti and the Dominican Republic to help strengthen families.
