What they do
Mission of Joy is A Tax Exempt Organization Dedicated to Support Orphan Children In India. We Have Provided Them With All Their Needs, Including Food, Housing, Clothes, and Education Including Christian Education. We Have Supported Three Orphanages, All The Staff Including Teachers and Pastors. We Are Also Dedicated to Bring The Good News of Gods Holy Word Throughout Many Villages In Remote India That Have Never Heard His Word Before.In 2021 We Sent Approximately $24,000 to India to Support Staff Who Were Underpaid In The Past Couple of Years. As We Noted Last Year, Because of The Pandemic Our Support Has Dropped Precipitously and Have Reduced What We Are Able to Do There. At Present, We Are Shrinking Our Expenses, and Have Returned Our Children to The Homes of Their Friends and Relatives.

Money made simple
Ask these three easy questions
- Who did you help? Ask for a recent story or report that shows real results.
- What will my money do? Ask exactly what your gift will pay for.
- Is this really the charity? Give only through its official website or confirmed phone number.
Bottom line: Do not decide from a name, mission statement, or tax status alone. Look at where the money went, then ask what changed, who was helped, and what your gift will do. YouCanGiveBack does not endorse or grade organizations.
Financial picture
A plain-language look at the latest Form 990 figures available. These numbers help you ask better questions; they do not, by themselves, rate whether a charity is good or bad.
How each $100 of revenue was used
The large number compares each expense with revenue. The smaller number shows its share of total expenses.
Expenses were greater than revenue, so the colored ring fills the available $100 and the total above 100% is shown below.
Has the pattern changed?
Colored bars = expense mix: how each year’s expenses were divided. Total expenses vs. revenue shows whether the charity spent less or more than it received. The current filing is first.
