What Mays Mission for the Handicapped Inc does
Mission
Mays mission for the handicapped offers hope to people whom no one else may care about. The mission provides worthwhile employment to handicapped persons from all walks of life and teaches the word of god in accordance with christian ethics and principles. In addition, mays mission sponsors activities for handicapped children; assists disabled adults to find proper housing, transportation, or medical attention; and makes grants to other institutions or organizations to benefit the handicapped, such as hospitals. While mays mission will assist any handicapped individual to the maximum extent possible, the mission is focused on serving those in rural arkansas and the ozark mountains region, an area that is generally economically depressed and suffers from a relatively high unemployment rate--hence few job opportunities for the disabled. A primary purpose is to help handicapped persons improve their job skills through on-the-job training and, in addition, to create jobs for them.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 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 $5.5M to $6.4M (+18%).
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.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
89% of MAYS MISSION FOR THE HANDICAPPED INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (55% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.
