What Laborers With Christ does
Mission
To meet the physical and spiritual needs of the world; to advance the health and wellbeing of the poor and needy, widow and orphan, and anyone else who desires a diet full of nutrition and variety; and to live out the gospel.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
In 2025, Laborers With Christ continues to help with financial sponsorship of an orphanage called the center of help. Most of the future financial support will be based upon donors who desire to designate for projetcs such as this. The center of help is a facility with 15 children and a staff that helps to operate and oversee the orphanage. Laborers With Christ is regularly in contact with the staff and is excited for future projects to help with the health and well-being of the facility. This year, once again, Laborers With Christ, was instrumental in a backpack program to help provide backpacks and school supplies to help the children with educational needs.
$41,500 spent44% of program spendingLaborers With Christ stays very active in support for the faagric program (faith agriculture) in nigeria, west africa. They have educated more than 1200+ participants in self-sustainable agriculture, and the importance of a strong nutritional diet. The project has provided the knowledge and ability to make the locally grown vegetables available in local markets, which has sparked interest of others in the communities who purchase them. This has stimulated an interest to consume the vegetables and receive the additional health benefits. In 2025 classes were offered at several different locations. Laborers With Christ is helping sponsor a pastor in the middle belt of nigeria which is an area of the persecuted church in nigeria. Regular support is sent to help with outreach and training as they reach out to the muslim community. In 2025 we helped with building a new building and assisting with benevolent needs in the community.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2018 to 2019, from $109k to $173k (+59%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 5 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
Who funds it, year by year
2018 → 2023: the base held at 1 funder, grant income fell $50 → $47.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 80% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
LABORERS WITH CHRIST leans on a few funders — its largest provides 80% 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
80% 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 LABORERS WITH CHRIST.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2018 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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
80% of LABORERS WITH CHRIST'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. Of the $50 that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from Iowa funders.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $204 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.
