What they do
DURING THE FIRST FEW MONTHS of 2021, VOLUNTEERS ASSISTED IN CUTTING, TRACING, SEWING and PREPARING KITS for THE NEXT SCHEDULED TRIP, AUGUST 2021. OVER 100 UNSEWN KITS for FUTURE SEWING CLASSES WERE ORGANIZED and FINISHED (SEWN) KITS AS WELL. WE CONTINUED COMMUNICATING WITH THE EXISTING COMMUNITIES WE WORK WITH and PROVIDED THE PATTERN to NEW INDIVIDUALS and GROUPS. IN AUGUST, WE DELIVERED FINISHED KITS and FABRIC (HEMP FLEECE and PUL FABRIC), THREAD, SEWING NEEDLES, VELCRO, BINDER CLIPS, SNAPS and SNAPPING TOOLS, and ADDITIONAL PATTERNS to THE COMMUNITIES WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH IN ZIMBABWE (CHISUMA, SIANYANGA, VICTORIA FALLS, MATOPOS). DUE to THE PANDEMIC, OUR GROUP DELIVERED THE SUPPLIES to INDIVIDUALS FROM EACH COMMUNITY/SCHOOL/GROUP AS SCHOOLS WERE NOT IN SESSION and FOLLOWED THE LOCAL COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS.

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.
The uncolored part of the ring is revenue above these reported expenses.
Money in and money out
