What Agape Missionaries for Life does

Mission

To Support Service of Health Related Missions in South Texas

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

Programs

  1. 2 Missionary staff in 2025 collaborated with over 100 volunteers in the RGV this year. We cared for over 4,000 patients/clients (400 patient encounters/month) through various mission projects in South Texas. Their service to the community was without charge. Their ministry consisted of primary care consultation, nursing and wound care, blood and lab testing, COVID and other disease testing, cancer screenings, home visits, legal consultations, prayer and spiritual support, and administrative support such as aiding patients in procuring other medical services not provided in the ministry such as specialty visits, physical therapy, dentistry, radiology testing, medication assistance, and eye surgeries. We conducted weekly outreach missions in Harlingen and San Benito providing healthcare, spiritual care, and food to homeless and others who were in need. The AMFL board and other organizational supporters helped train and send qualified missionaries to serve in these areas in some of the most neediest areas of South Texas. Support for the services of this mission were made possible in this year through grants, corporate sponsors and numerous other donors/partners.

Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 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.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2019 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $100k → $10k.

1 of 3 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 7% 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 AGAPE MISSIONARIES FOR LIFE’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.

How concentrated its funding is

AGAPE MISSIONARIES FOR LIFE leans on a few funders — its largest provides 71% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

29% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund AGAPE MISSIONARIES FOR LIFE.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10k 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.
