As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
School Fee Scholarships support 608 orphans and underprivileged youth in Egypt by providing access to consistent education. These scholarships help students remain in school without interruption due to financial hardship, reducing the risk of dropping out or repeating academic years. By ensuring access to education, the program helps protect vulnerable youth from exploitation and harmful circumstances while empowering them with opportunities for stable employment, a brighter future, and the ability to support their families.

These programs focused on educating youth, parents, educators, students, faith leaders, and community members about the realities of human trafficking, warning signs, prevention strategies, online safety, and available resources for victims and survivors.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 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 and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $43k to $214k (+393%).
