What they do
AS WE BEGAN WORKING WITH STUDENTS FROM OGDEN, KS IN 2010 WE STARTED to SEE THAT POVERTY IN OUR COMMUNITY is LARGELY GENERATIONAL. WE WATCHED STUDENTS WE WORKED WITH, WHO GREW UP IN LOW INCOME HOMES, BECOME ADULTS IN LOW INCOME SITUATIONS, and EVENTUALLY RAISE THEIR OWN KIDS IN LOW INCOME HOMES. IN 2017 WE OPENED THE HOUSE CAFE INC. to TRY and INTERVENE IN THE GENERATIONAL POVERTY CYCLE. THROUGH THE SELLING of FOOD and DRINK ITEMS IN A LOCALLY OPERATED COFFEE SHOP. PROFITS, AS WELL AS GRANTS and DONATIONS ARE USED to FUND CHILDREN, YOUTH, and COMMUNITY FOCUSED ENDEAVORS THAT EQUIP and EMPOWER OGDEN CHILDREN and YOUTH WITH RESOURCES, ABILITIES, and EDUCATION to ESCAPE A GENERATIONAL CYCLE of POVERTY. THESE ENDEAVORS CONFRONT, WITHOUT LIMITATIONS, CONTRIBUTING FACTORS to POVERTY SUCH AS DRUG ABUSE, HIGH CRIME RATES, LACK of RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, UNEMPLOYMENT, and A LACK of EDUCATION or EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES, and OTHER FACTORS WHICH CONTRIBUTE to THE CONTINUATION of THE POVERTY CYCLE.

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.
Gray means reported revenue left after expenses for this filing year. It does not necessarily mean cash sitting in a bank account.
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.
Money in and money out
