What Poland Evangelical Mission does
Mission
Religious mission to teach the bible to people of poland.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Through the evangelical bible school we helped to support eleven christian leaders in poland. Seven of these are pastors directly involved with planting churches in poland. One is the director of the bible school which we support, two also act as directors of church camps, and two evangelize through the performing arts. Our goal is to provide enough financial support so these people do not need to work full time outside of the church and are therefore able to spend a significant part of their time growing their churches and ministries.

This year pem continued to to raise money for the jastrzebie church & camp building project, which will add an exit for dorm rooms and additional kitchen space. This year pem also raised funds so camp eden could install central heating. There has also been an outpouring of help for ukrainians displaced because of the war.

Many of poland's children and youth become acquainted with the lord through the camps and many of these will give their lives to the lord at camp. Our mission now supports three church camps both financially and by sending volunteer teams to help with the church camps during the summer. These teams supply games, sport, and arts/crafts material and equipment, speakers for worship services, and leaders for organized activities. They also provide camp scholarships so those in need can attend camp.

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. 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 $21k to $53k (+150%).
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: 2022 77%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of POLAND EVANGELICAL MISSION’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (100% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $223 → $8k.
1 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 11% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of POLAND EVANGELICAL MISSION’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. 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.
How concentrated its funding is
POLAND EVANGELICAL MISSION leans on a few funders — its largest provides 89% 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
100% 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 POLAND EVANGELICAL MISSION.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 97% — diversifying over time.
“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
POLAND EVANGELICAL MISSION draws 100% of its grant income from funders outside South Dakota, across 1 state in all.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $979 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.
