What 5cees International does
Mission
This organization is organized exclusively for charitable educational religious and or scientific purposes under Section 501c3 of the Internal Revenue Code or corresponding section of any future federal tax code and shall not inure benefit or earnings to any private shareholder or individual. Our mission is to empower 5Cees South Africas ongoing care for vulnerable children by fostering communication and building relationships between their mission and US-based supporters providing financial prayer and resource support. Ongoing we meet with local managers of the Care center monthly by Zoom and with their local Board when possible. We send funds monthly to support the ongoing operation of the care center and communicate regularly with donors and others interested in the activities and ongoing needs of the program.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
During the visit to South Africa our board members and other stakeholders explored an adjacent property to assess the potential for expanding the care center to accommodate more vulnerable children and broaden our services. Following a thorough evaluation and deliberation on the advantages of the expansion a significant portion of the 30 individuals present opted to financially support the acquisition of the property which was successfully finalized in September 2025. This expansion represents a critical step in our mission to provide essential care and support to a greater number of children in need.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2024, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2024, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $3k to $2k (−25%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
100% of 5cees International’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (100% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
Grant support over time, funder by funder — shade shows the grant size each year.
1 of 1 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of 5cees International’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of 5cees International's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $22k arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
