The field personnel of TFWA are headquartered in Caldas da Rainha, Portugal. The general funds donated to TFWA by donors in the USA compose the entire general budget for the organization. There are two main programs delivered by TFWA field personnel and their associates in Togo throughout the year -- Togo Family Assistance Program and the Togo Tigers Program (mainly ABCD delivered to young Togolese men and women). The TFWA field peronnel make two trips (1-2 months each trip) a year to Togo to deliver services "on the ground in Togo." This also allows TFWA field personnel time to strengthen their relationship with the Togolese associates in country. Togo Tigers Program: This program has been strengthened this year by wiring financial assistance to a TFWA associate in Lome, Togo, West Africa, who disburses funds to provide living accommodations and business development financial assistance to young men and women living in poverty in Togo. This program also pays for 2, 2-month trips annually by Mike Hutchinson. When in Togo, Mike uses ABCD experience to assist the Togo Tigers in learning by working on self-designed projects that help the community and eventually allow the individual Tigers to be self-supporting. 0 12642 Togo Family Assistance Program: This program is designed to assist Togo family members of all ages in meeting the everyday demands of their daily lives. Most of these families are struggling through life at the near-poverty level and they need financial assistance to meet life's basic needs -- food, clothing, shelter, medical, education, transportation, etcetera. This is done by TFWA field personnel through financial support and teaching basic life skills. Of course, all of this contact with the family members allows the TFWA field personnel to share and teach the love of Jesus. 0 13016 25658 Michael Hutchinson CEO, TFWA Field Leader 20 0 0 0 Lynn Hutchinson Director, Field Personnel 10 0 0 0 Laura Clark Director 2 0 0 0 Allen Clark Director 2 0 0 0 Cindy Stewart Director 2 0 0 0 Ric Stewart Director, Secretary 8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Ric Stewart USA Administrative Office 2463 Sunkist Country Club Rd Biloxi MS 39532 2282433195 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Togo Family Assistance Program Expenses: $13016; Togo Tigers Program Expenses: $12,642
