Since 2012, Freedom Challenge has granted more than $6 million. We evaluate the needs of each project annually and allocate when looking at the total funds granted, 56% has gone toward Prevention projects; 26% toward Development projects; and 18% go toward Rescue and Restoration projects.
Each project must submit an annual plan and a report at the end of the calendar year, and quarterly impact stories detailing progress toward set goals. We maintain a direct line of communication with people administering each project and periodically visit projects to monitor impact and effectiveness.
The timing of the Freedom Challenge’s grant cycle depends on our annual physical challenges. We do not hold onto these funds for prolonged periods; rather, once the challenge fundraising season is complete, we send the money to the projects in order to immediately impact vulnerable and marginalized women and children.
The majority of your gift goes directly to benefit vulnerable and marginalized women and children around the world. 15% of your gift is allocated to OM’s Annual Fund. This ensures sustainability, provides world-class stewardship and financial accountability through annual independent audits and helps expand our advocacy efforts to engage more women in the fight against human trafficking and relief from oppression. 3% is allocated to support OM’s leaders around the world.
Freedom Challenge’s operating costs are part of OM USA’s expense budget. Our program expenses are not deducted from gifts to Freedom Challenge or fundraising efforts.
