Catholic Relief Services
The Catholic Relief Services (CRS) is a non-profit organization headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland. It has a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status because of its affiliation with the Catholic Church, and it had 793 employees as of 2013. Its mission statement is to “carry out the commitment of the Bishops of the United States to assist the poor and vulnerable overseas.” The organization does this by collecting contributions and grants so that they can help serve marginalized people throughout the world. A few facts from their form 990 reveal that the organization is performing well and able to carry out its mission. CRS gained $76.3 million more in contributions and grants in 2013 than the prior year, and the company’s revenue less expenses increased $27.2 million from 2012 to 2013. Also, its 2014 operating expenses budget allocated 92.01% of its resources to programs intended to carry out its mission, while only 7.99% went to internal support of their organization. Ultimately, based on the information presented in Catholic Relief Services’ financial statements, I recommend donating to their cause. They put their money toward their mission, and they work honestly and actively to help provide relief for poor people throughout the globe.
