Mission

For the Nations Refugee Outreach provides general educational and family services that help meet the practical needs of refugees and shares with them the gospel of Jesus Christ. We serve refugees from more than 20 countries resettled in the Dallas/Fort Worth area from ages 0-87 by emphasizing education, family services and the Christian gospel message through ESL classes, literacy, tutoring, preschool, citizenship classes, Bible studies, life skills, reading programs, field trips and seminars. We also help connect refugees to food, clothing and health care. Our vision is to bring these proven programs to more and more of the area’s large refugee population.

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Refugees are people who have fled their country of origin and who cannot return to their home due to fear of persecution that is based on their race, religion, ethnic group, or membership in a particular social or political group. These are kind, hardworking, loving, underserved adults and children who need our help to adjust to life in America and thrive here. Refugees are strong capable people who want to succeed, and who have high expectations for their children. The effort and perseverance it takes for them to get to our country shows they are worthy investments of our time and resources. Refugees only receive personal help from the government and other organizations working with the government for a few months, but continue to need help with English, literacy, schoolwork, employment assistance, and many other life skills for much longer.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

What is the organization aiming to accomplish?

For the Nations Refugee Outreach is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization which has been serving refugees in the Dallas area since 2006 and was officially incorporated in 2011. We are now one of the largest refugee programs in the greater Dallas/Ft. Worth area. We serve approximately 2,000 refugees annually from more than 20 countries in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East who are all resettled legally and permanently in the Dallas area. 99% of those we serve live below the poverty line. Our mission is to provide education and family services to help meet the practical needs of these refugees and to share with them the gospel of Jesus Christ. We accomplish our mission through three main areas: Education, Family Services, and the Gospel. It is our purpose and desire to equip refugee adults and children with the skills they need to successfully navigate life in the United States and assimilate into our community.

What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?

At For the Nations Refugee Outreach, we have developed excellent and effective educational programs. Our vision is to use these programs to benefit more and more of the large refugee population in our area. Our goals are: To teach English and literacy to children and adults. To teach life skills to children and adults. To help refugees adapt to their new home. To connect refugees with the community. To teach the Bible and the Christian faith to refugees. By teaching English, helping children with homework, aiding families as they adapt to American culture, and assisting adults as they seek employment, we can equip refugees to build a rich new life here in the United States and, in doing so, elevate, strengthen, and benefit the entire community. This is good for all of us!

What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?

Education: We provide many levels of English instruction (ESL), literacy classes, citizenship classes, GED classes, and scholastic tutoring for both adults and children throughout the year. Family Services Theology: We offer a wide variety of educational programs to help refugees as they navigate the long and often difficult process of adapting to life in the United States. We also help families adjust to life in America by advocating for them. Most importantly, we share with refugees the good news of Jesus Christ.

What have they accomplished so far and what's next?

Here are a few examples: 1. Approximately 85% of children in our programs, that come to us reading below grade level, catch up after two years. 2. On average, adult refugees have the skills necessary to sustain their families after just two years of classes at For the Nations Refugee Outreach. 3. After each academic year, approximately 20% of our graduates move on to attend college, and 30% start sustainable employment.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Sep 01 - Aug 31

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

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.
