Programs
DSHS/ORIA Washington Mass Project: The Congolese United Foundation (CUF), through the DSHS/ORIA Washington Mass Project, provided during 6 months critical support services to asylum seekers, refugees, and vulnerable immigrant families by offering legal and housing referrals, job readiness training, financial literacy and tenant rights workshops, immigration ?Know Your Rights? education, interpretation services, advocacy, emotional support, food assistance, hygiene kits, emergency transportation, and basic household furnishings for newly housed clients. CUF also hosted 3 transition workshops and connected clients to ongoing community resources and service providers as the project concluded.

Between January 1 and June 30, CUF served 120 individuals across more than 20 households, including additional eligible clients supported through organizational funds to ensure uninterrupted assistance and community-centered care.

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 at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $15k to $15k (−2%).
