01What it does

What Journey Community Center Inc does

Mission

The mission of the Corporation is to stand together to change lives by giving a hand up, not a hand out through any and all services that the Board of Directors sees fit. Every action of the Corporation will be filtered through these lenses: "Are we acting together as partners to positively impact the community? Are lives being improved:"Spiritually, Morally, Financially, Physically and/or Educationally?" Our community outreach provides food, clothes and material needs through the operation of a thrift store and restaurant. Currently we are renovating a motel to provide transitional housing.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Each line starts at 100 in 2023, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2023, 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.
