Financial Integrity
Stewarding every gift with faithfulness, transparency, and care.
Strengthening Healthcare That Endures
For more than 60 years, Medical Benevolence Foundation has partnered with Christian healthcare institutions and leaders serving communities with limited access to care. Together, we are strengthening the systems, people, and spiritual foundations that allow healthcare to endure, multiply, and be sustained through local hands.
We believe faithful stewardship is part of our ministry calling. Every gift entrusted to MBF is stewarded with integrity, accountability, transparency, and prayerful care so hospitals, clinics, healthcare training programs, and spiritual care ministries can continue serving patients and families for generations to come.

Financial Transparency for Donors and Ministry Partners
Medical Benevolence Foundation is committed to nonprofit financial transparency, responsible stewardship, and accountable healthcare ministry. MBF publishes audited financial statements, IRS Form 990 filings, and annual reports so donors, churches, foundations, and ministry partners can confidently evaluate our financial practices and long-term ministry impact.
We also respect the confidentiality of every ministry partner and do not sell, rent, or trade donor information.
Stewarding Resources for Long-Term Impact
These investments help strengthen healthcare systems, train and equip local clinicians, develop leaders, improve quality of care, strengthen operational systems, and sustain Christ-centered healthcare ministries in underserved communities.
Because sustainable healthcare requires more than short-term solutions, MBF invests in the systems, leadership, training, and spiritual foundations that allow care to endure over time.

Frequently Asked Questions About MBF's Finances
Why did MBF's revenue decrease compared to the previous year?
MBF's annual revenue can fluctuate significantly from year to year depending on the timing of major gifts, grants, and special funding initiatives.
The previous year included unusually large contributions that are not part of our typical annual fundraising cycle. While annual revenue varies, our commitment to advancing the gospel through healthcare ministry remains constant.
We evaluate our financial position over multiple years rather than focusing on a single year's revenue to ensure long-term sustainability and mission effectiveness.
Why did MBF spend more than it received during the year?
Nonprofit financial reporting often reflects timing differences between when funds are received and when they are deployed for ministry purposes.
During this period, MBF continued investing in strategic ministry opportunities, medical assistance programs, and global partnerships that align with our mission. As a result, expenses exceeded current-year contributions.
Our leadership and Board regularly review financial performance, reserves, and ministry commitments to ensure responsible stewardship and long-term organizational health.
I noticed MBF has significant investments. Why does MBF still need donations?
MBF's investment assets are not simply excess cash sitting in a bank account.
Like many mature nonprofit organizations, MBF maintains investment reserves to:
- Sustain ministry during fluctuations in annual giving
- Support long-term ministry commitments
- Strengthen organizational stability during economic uncertainty
- Generate income that can be directed toward mission impact
Donor support remains essential because annual gifts fund current ministry opportunities, expand our reach, and help us respond to emerging needs around the world.
Every donation enables MBF to serve more people through healthcare ministry and gospel-centered partnerships.
How much of MBF's funding goes directly into ministry?
MBF is committed to using resources to advance healthcare ministry and strengthen Christian witness around the world.
In the most recent reporting year, MBF provided nearly $8 million in grants and assistance to international organizations and individuals serving in ministry settings worldwide.
These investments support healthcare access, ministry partnerships, and gospel-centered initiatives that align with our mission.
Why does MBF maintain financial reserves?
Financial reserves help ensure that ministry continues regardless of economic conditions, donor giving cycles, or unexpected global events.
Maintaining reserves allows MBF to:
- Honor long-term commitments to ministry partners
- Respond to urgent needs and opportunities
- Protect ministry operations during economic downturns
- Plan strategically for future impact
We view reserves as a stewardship tool that helps sustain ministry rather than replace the need for ongoing donor partnership.
How does MBF ensure accountability?
MBF is governed by an independent Board of Directors and follows established nonprofit financial oversight practices.
Our annual audited financial statements and IRS Form 990 are publicly available, and we are committed to transparency, responsible stewardship, and mission-focused use of resources.
