01What it does

What Ellipsis International does

Mission

To share the light of christ among the dark streets of the philippines and bring healing to the abandoned, neglected, and orphaned children.

As stated on its FY2020 Form 990.

The first program described on its most recent Form 990, which lists programs largest first by expense.

Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.

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.

Mississippi out of state home

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $6 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.
