Mercy House Adult and Teen Challenge
Mercy House’s mission is to see broken families restored, one man at a time, by teaching the men

to help men achieve their full potential as leaders in their homes and communities. We focus on a broad
approach to recovery that features a faith-based curriculum centered on inner healing, along with
practical steps in day-to-day activities. We are seeing great results with the training provided by Mercy
House, through the curriculum and through the work-study program implemented.

Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
SOURCE: IRS Form 990
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
