How does your 990 look to donors? Take the 10-Question Audit

We endeavor to build radio towers in remote communities for aboriginal people, to share the Gospel of Christ. Much of our time and expenses are given to travel to meet with the elders of the communities, establish relationships, and later build a radio tower to bring the hope of the Gospel through the radio to these remote communities and provide on-going Christian support. We also travel to many of these remote communities as we become more established, to broadcast live events, maintain and repair the tower sites as needed, and to conduct interviews to create recordings to be shared over the air waves both in English and their native languages.

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.

All figures are derived from public IRS Form 990 filings and are presented without evaluation of any organization. philanthropy.org does not rate, score, or rank organizations, including the pay comparisons above.
