Partner Grants and Sponsorships
Lahash partnered with six East African organizations in 2020. These organizations care for the most vulnerable children in their communities. These children have lost one or both parents and are living in areas with high HIV/AIDS rates and/or living in areas affected by armed conflict.
Travel Expenses
Lahash alerts, trains, and facilitates volunteers to our partner locations across East Africa. These volunteers learn about the local problems and solutions in the region as well as provide professional services in the fields of medicine, journalism, Christian education, finances, staff development, photography, and social services.

Lahash advocates for vulnerable populations that have little or no global exposure to their plight. Our primary vehicle is a yearly magazine that reaches 2500 readers. We maintain two websites and raise awareness by sharing presentations in churches and homes.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More
The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.
Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.
We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.
Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.
If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.
Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.
If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
