The Miracle Foundation - Mission/Operations

Mission/Operations

With its mission to “empower orphans to reach their full potential—one child at a time,” The Miracle Foundation provides the orphans in their care with a loving, nurturing environment in which the children can thrive. Like all charities, The Miracle Foundation relies on public generosity to carry out their work, which includes: long-term, one-to-one sponsorship of a child, individual donations, or traveling to the orphanages via The Miracle Foundation’s Voluntourism program. As a small non-profit organization with a large number of volunteers and very few employees, TMF has kept overhead low, resulting in a large percentage of donations going to direct care of orphans, rather than administrative costs. In 2008, 83% of all donations went towards program services, 12% went to operations and 5% went to fundraising.
