FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1Unbound's mission is to walk with the poor and marginalized of the world. 1. We provide personal attention and direct benefits to children, youth, aging and their families so they may live with dignity, achieve their desired potential and participate fully in society. 2. We invite people of goodwill to live in daily solidarity with the worlds poor through one-to-one sponsorship. 3. We build community by fostering relationships of mutual respect, understanding and support that are culturally diverse, empowering and without religious or other prejudice. Grounded in the Gospel call to serve the poor, Unbound is a lay Catholic organization working with persons of all faith traditions to create a worldwide community of compassion and service.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4ATotal grants for the sponsorship program were $109 million in 2019. At the end of 2019, a total of 301,555 individuals in Latin America, Asia and Africa were sponsored through Unbound. They included 268,421 children and youth, 32,895 elders and 239 candidates studying for the priesthood or religious life. Following are examples of achievements in the sponsorship program, as sponsored individuals and their families partnered with Unbound to identify the specific challenges they must overcome, set their own goals and formulate plans to achieve them. Unbounds sponsorship program connects children, youth, elders and their families with individual sponsors and supportive local communities of staff members and other families. Through sponsorship, individuals and families have resources and a solid support network to begin to chart their own course out of poverty. In 2019, Unbound had programs in 18 countries, including Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Kenya, Madagascar, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, the Philippines, Tanzania and Uganda. In 2019, Unbound also started a program in Rwanda and sponsorship launched in January 2020. Sponsors - through the monthly financial contributions they make and letters they receive from their sponsored friends - experience a sense of connection with someone in another part of the world and satisfaction knowing they are helping another human being reach their potential. Sponsors also have the opportunity to write to their sponsored friends to offer their encouragement and build rewarding relationships. Unbound had 252,222 sponsors from the U.S. and around the world at the end of 2019. Sponsored individuals and their families partner with Unbound to make program and benefit decisions that help them meet their basic needs and develop their potential over the course of their time in the program, which is sometimes 18 years or more. Sponsored individuals and their families use financial assistance to help meet needs such as education, nutrition, housing improvements, transportation and health care. They also have access to leadership and economic development opportunities related to financial literacy, skill development and income generation. Sponsorship requires active participation from families as the program is highly personalized. With support from social workers and other local Unbound staff, families take a central role in determining sponsorship benefits, and in forming support networks in which they encourage each other and hold each other accountable. Small support groups of parents and guardians, mostly made up of mothers, are key in the sponsorship programs success. Families, particularly mothers, are the primary leaders in Unbound. They know best when it comes to meeting their childrens needs, and Unbound listens to them and learns from them. Mothers participating in Unbound have taken advantage of micro-savings and credit opportunities to meet urgent family needs, or to start or boost small businesses to generate income, Parents have also formed cooperatives to meet community needs and provide income for members. Outcomes of sponsorship vary but typically relate to education, leadership development, improved health and nutrition status, dignified housing, skill development and increased income through livelihood opportunities for families. Monitoring program success Monitoring and evaluation of programs Unbound is committed to learning from our work and ensuring that it makes a positive impact in the lives of children, youth, elders and families around the world. The organization asks two basic questions to earn donor trust and be at our best for those we work with: 1. Did we do what we said we were going to do? This is program monitoring. 2. Did it make a difference? This is program evaluation. Unbound distinguishes between monitoring and evaluation and maintains separate but complementary strategies. Monitoring: The principal purpose of monitoring is accountability. Regular program monitoring is conducted to ensure fidelity in the organizational structure, development of programs, implementation of policies and the appropriate use of finances. Some of this monitoring happens across distance with regular reporting, emails and phone calls. Much of it happens with personal, on-site visits from Unbound's Kansas City headquarters staff. Unbounds monitoring strategy includes: 1. Visits made annually to each project for staff development, program support and assessments 2. Financial audits conducted in each project 3. Program audits conducted in each project 4. Awareness trips and individual sponsor visit opportunities 5. Third-party legal assessments of projects Evaluation: Learning is the focus of program evaluation. Unbounds personalized approach to sponsorship requires a unique and creative approach to evaluation. The organization has developed a three-tier system to evaluate the outcomes of the Unbound sponsorship program to address the learning and decision-making needs at all levels: individual, project/program and global. Individual outcomes: Letters from sponsored individuals to their sponsors provide direct feedback about how the relationships and support make a difference. Sponsored children and youth, for example, often write about how they are progressing in school or how the benefits of the program impact them and their families. Program outcomes: Programs at the project level are tailored to the needs of sponsored individuals and their families and the initiatives of Unbound in their communities. Families work with program staff to define and measure outcomes and utilize the results for continuous program improvement. With training and technical support from the evaluation team, these locally directed evaluations ask questions like: What is the program accomplishing? How are families different now? What could we do better? Global outcomes: As an international organization, Unbound also recognizes the need to step back periodically and look at the big picture. Global evaluations explore questions of organizational outcomes for all program participants across borders and in every region. These broad assessments help us tell our collective story and understand the effectiveness of our approach in key areas such as educational attainment, economic self-sufficiency, empowerment of mothers and community participation. Each tier of our evaluation framework is important to understanding the whole of Unbounds impact and its complex contribution to individual goals around the world. Governing board's role in monitoring outcomes On behalf of sponsored individuals, their families and sponsors, the Unbound Governing Board monitors the integrity and accountability of the organization's operations. The board proactively defines the outcomes expected from the organization. Management must then produce verifiable data proving progress toward the expected outcomes. Management chooses the means to achieve the boards ends. However, the board sets ethical and prudent limits on which means management may use. The board systematically monitors compliance with these executive limitations. As a result, the board confidently assures donors that their contributions achieve their promised objectives, and that the organization remains transparent and ethical. Monitoring activities and evaluation methods Unbound conducts financial and program audits of projects on a regular basis to ensure financial resources provide intended benefits and services and sponsored members are empowered to direct their own development. In addition, almost all projects receive at least one visit by headquarters staff every year. Staff members also accompany sponsors on Unbound awareness trips visiting projects and families in the program. In 2019, headquarters staff collectively spent more than 1,400 days in the field monitoring and supporting programs. In addition, the organization performs quality checks on letters and photos from sponsored friends to their sponsors, and monitors member retirement rates and sponsor retention rates. Unbound collects educational attendance and performance data and documents the final education level achieved by sponsored members leaving the program. Unbound projects around the world conduct evaluations in their local contexts to determine outcomes for sponsored members and their families. Methods include surveys of sponsored members on income and skill development, focus groups on attitudes and behavioral changes, and interviews to document empowerment. Organization-wide program evaluations focus on four key domains: education, economic status, community participation and empowerment. Empowerment refers to ones ability to make decisions for oneself and act freely in a way that is intentional and goal-oriented. Examples of program success
Cash TransfersWith the introduction and adoption of individual bank account models, a majority of sponsored members now have more direct access to their personal benefits. While a major concern surrounding cash transfer programs has been misuse of funds, Unbound seeks to answer these concerns by conducting an evaluation that studies the purchasing behavior of the families participating in the sponsorship program. Evaluations were conducted in India in 2018 and Guatemala in 2019 to determine if a lack of supervision mechanisms - such as submission of receipts - has any impact on the ways families use their benefit amounts. The findings from this evaluation did not indicate that supervision mechanisms lead to a decrease in purchasing temptation goods. This means that families who weren't submitting receipts were no more likely to purchase temptation goods than the families that were submitting receipts. Finally, various project (community) level evaluations are ongoing and led by program staff in each country. The primary purpose of evaluations at the project level is to ensure continuous program improvements and adaptations to the ever-changing world around the program. For example, a 2019 evaluation conducted in Delhi, India, on a tutoring program showed 73% of the mothers of the tutored children have seen improved performance in the studies of their children. Furthermore, 73% of the mothers mentioned that the level of confidence in the children has increased. A 2019 evaluation in Guatemala revealed how families are spending their benefit funds. This information will be used to enhance the program to support financial planning for the achievement of goals.
EducationSponsorship helps children achieve a level of education that prepares them to compete with peers for jobs and be educated community members, parents and leaders. At a global level, at the point of leaving the program, 75% of sponsored children achieved a level of schooling comparable to or above national peer averages, according to data gathered from 2011-2014. This means that Unbound students - despite marginalization based on economic, social and geographic factors - were able to compete and excel alongside students from all socioeconomic brackets and areas within their countries. Of these former sponsored children, 51% achieved educational levels a year or more above their national peer averages. The number jumped to 59% achieving a year or more above their national peer averages when looking at the experience of sponsored girls. This, along with country-level analysis, indicated a specific impact on girls education and a closing or reversing of the prominent gender gap present in many communities. In Guatemala, for example, sponsored children, on average, achieved almost three years of schooling more than the national average for their peers. And in Unbound's Quezon program in the Philippines, 57% of sponsored youth pursued post-secondary education compared to 30% of their peers. Families Sponsorship impacts the sponsored child and the entire family. Unbounds direct work through a personalized benefit model and parent groups means families are able to best allocate resources for their children and direct how the program supports their development as families. Most sponsored children have representation in the program through small parent/guardian groups. These groups provide the space for families to have a voice in the program and be part of a supportive community, addressing two significant components of poverty: lack of choices and isolation. In 2019, a local evaluation in Kisumu, Kenya, focused on understanding the factors that were stopping the members of the parent groups from taking loans from their groups cooperatives called Borneka SACCO. They found out that 54% of the respondents had never taken a loan from the SACCO, mostly because they felt like the regulation that qualifies the members for larger loans limited them in terms of when and how much they could withdraw for a loan. The team and the SACCO members are reviewing as well as educating the members on the guidelines and regulations of the loaning process to help more members in need. In 2017, an evaluation measuring the empowerment of mothers of sponsored children was performed. It compared those mothers to mothers who are waiting for their children to be sponsored. The evaluation found that parents of children sponsored through Unbound displayed a stronger level of ownership of psychological assets - such as happiness, control, goal setting and self-esteem - than the wait-list parents did. Unbound mothers were members in community groups, organizations, networks or associations as well. Mothers and guardians in Unbound reported feeling they are having a greater impact on their communities. Thirty percent of Unbound mothers said they were involved in making decisions within their communities compared to 16% of mothers in the comparison group. Evaluation results showed how more women in Unbound are taking economic risks starting small businesses to enact change. More women in the Unbound program have their own businesses, and fewer women in the program are unemployed than mothers in the comparison group. More mothers in Unbound also reported having complete choice in deciding or changing their occupations. This evaluation was a follow-up to a 2013 global evaluation on the same topic. The 2017 study revealed that 9% of mothers of sponsored children believed they had the power to change their familys situation, and 63% reported they were active in solving problems in their communities, among other findings on participation and empowerment indicators. Unbound is now in the final year of a six-year longitudinal data collection on economic outcomes for sponsored members and their families. The evaluation includes both quantitative and qualitative data and follows families from the time they begin the program. Elders Elders in communities where Unbound works face challenges related to health, access to care and medicine, and loneliness. Unbound seeks to overcome these challenges through monthly benefits such as food assistance, help with health and medical expenses, home visits and group activities. In 2018, an evaluation was conducted to measure Unbounds impact with elders in relation to overcoming these challenges. The results were overwhelmingly positive. Sponsored elders experience a lower sense of emptiness, encountered less frequent feelings of rejection, and underwent fewer moments of missing having people around than the elderly population who live in similar circumstances but are not part of the Unbound sponsorship program. Additionally, sponsored elders feel they can rely on other individuals when they have problems, believe they can trust others in their lives, and consider themselves close to others in contrast to those elders who were waiting to participate in the Unbound sponsorship program. Sponsored elders felt at ease when talking with more people about private matters, and they have more close friends to call on for help compared to non-sponsored elders. Sponsored elders did not worry as frequently about insufficient food intake, did not have to limit variety of food, and did not go as hungry compared to elders outside of the program who more frequently experienced these conditions. Lastly, the study revealed that sponsored elders had greater access to medicine and medical care than those elders who were waiting to be sponsored by Unbound. According to the survey, 66% of sponsored elders said they received needed medical care, compared to 40% on the waiting list. The results of this evaluation aid in our understanding of the effectiveness of the Unbound programs global impact with elders and help us make decisions to improve how the program serves elders globally.
Feedback from sponsorsUnbound recognizes sponsors and other benefactors not merely as donors but, first and foremost, as highly valued and respected members of the Unbound community. Both sponsors and sponsored persons have something to gain from the sponsorship relationship, and toward that end Unbound is committed to helping sponsors become more aware of the realities of global poverty and grow in human solidarity. The staff at Unbound take exceptional care in communications with sponsors, whether dealing with routine account matters or in the production of publications and digital content. The goal is for sponsors to be informed about what happens in programs so they understand how their contributions are being used and become more invested in the lives of those they help. On an ongoing basis, Unbound surveys sponsors whose sponsorship relationships have come to an end. Respondents are asked how they feel about their sponsorship experience and how likely they would be to recommend Unbound. In 2019, the results were: 1. Ninety percent indicate they were either very satisfied (59%) or satisfied (31%). 2. More than 92% indicated they were either very likely (65.3%) or somewhat likely (27%) to recommend Unbound. In October through December of 2017, Unbound conducted a survey to determine what sponsors value about the sponsorship relationship and where communication fits into it. Respondents were asked about ways they engage with Unbound. Among the findings were: 1. Eighty-five percent of respondents reported they read printed material they receive in the mail from Unbound (including publications and information included with payment receipts). 2. Fifty-two percent reported that they read emails from Unbound. 3. Twenty-five percent of survey respondents reported they visit the Unbound website. 4. Of those who reported visiting the website, a large majority, 85%, stated the reason they visit is to send eLetters to their sponsored friends. Secondary reasons were to make payments or learn more about Unbound. 5. Fourteen percent of sponsors taking the survey reported that they call Unbound for questions, comments or needs related to their sponsorship. 6. Nine percent of survey respondents reported they have hosted or volunteered at an event promoting Unbound. 7. Five percent of respondents reported they read Unbound's blog or social media updates. Perhaps the most significant indicator of a quality sponsor experience is that Unbound maintains a high sponsor retention rate. Unbound ended 2019 with a retention rate of 92.3%. Another indicator of a quality sponsor experience is the number of people, 31,974 in 2019, who sponsor more than one child or elderly person through the organization. Sponsors who travel on Unbound awareness trips have a special opportunity to deepen their experience by meeting their sponsored friends, learning about their sponsored friends lives and cultures, and seeing firsthand the change individuals and families are creating with their support. In 2019, 643 people participated in 28 awareness trips in 12 countries.
FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4BFollowing are examples of achievements in education as Unbound works with students in our scholarship program. Educational support provided by Unbound's scholarship program helps talented older students who, because of economic circumstances, are struggling to continue their educations. The program is based on principles of perseverance, leadership and service to the community. The scholarship program complements the educational support provided by the Unbound sponsorship program, with 46.8% of scholarship students also sponsored. Unbound scholarships have helped students in communities around the world achieve their educational goals. Students are able to complete their educations, follow their chosen career paths and be of service to the larger community. Scholarships are used for needs such as secondary, post-secondary and vocational school tuition; transportation; school supplies and books. Students are selected by local program staffs based on economic need, commitment to completing their educations, demonstrated leadership potential and interest in community service. Scholarship students participate in service projects as a requirement of the program. Scholarships are intended as supplemental assistance, and students and their families contribute what they can toward educational costs. In 2019, scholarship grants to Unbound field offices totaled more than $3.9 million. Scholarships were awarded to 9,086 students in Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Kenya, Madagascar, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, the Philippines, Tanzania and Uganda. Many scholars are sponsored youth who need extra financial help in addition to sponsorship support to complete their educations. Qualified non-sponsored students identified by local Unbound staffs as being in need of educational assistance are also eligible for scholarships and represent 53.2% of those receiving awards. The service requirement is an important component of the program. Service may include tutoring, helping children in the sponsorship program write letters to their sponsors in the U.S., translating letters or performing work related to their fields of study. A number of former scholars work for Unbound as staff members after they graduate. They bring to their work a wealth of knowledge and a unique perspective on the program and their communities. Monitoring program success Scholars are required to maintain good grades in addition to fulfilling service requirements. Local Unbound staffs monitor students to make sure they are meeting program requirements, and they provide annual reports on the scholarship programs. Examples of program success At various locations around the world, community-level evaluations are ongoing and being led by program staff in each country. The primary purpose of evaluations at the local level is to ensure continuous program improvements and adaptations to the ever-changing world around the program. In 2019, 14 local-level evaluations were conducted, including the following three examples. In Honduras, 99% of scholars stated that they believe they are achieving their academic goals. Beyond their personal academic accomplishments, the evaluation in Honduras measured how scholars were leaders in their communities. Of the scholars who took the survey, 94% believe their actions in the Unbound scholarship program earn them respect in the community, and 91% believe they can take action to improve their community. In Guatemala, 98% of the scholars report having a goal for which they are working to achieve. The goals were education-related for 84% of the scholars. The evaluation in Guatemala also focused on results from students receiving tutoring from the scholars. It found that 95% of parents of students receiving tutoring reported a positive change in the attitude of their child. In Madagascar, young people in the scholarship program were dropping out of school. The evaluation highlighted the main reason as lack of specific objectives or goals that would motivate them to continue. Based on the finding, staff in Madagascar recommended that identifying and setting goals be part of the interview process, and that these efforts be nurtured through sessions that give scholars a way to motivate themselves and each other to achieve their dreams. Unbound has also initiated qualitative evaluation of the scholarship program with alumni, utilizing a group mind-mapping process and individual interviews to explore long-term outcomes. Unbound conducted Ripple-Effect Mapping (REM) in 2015 with 32 program alumni from rural communities in Guatemala and in 2013 with more than 80 program alumni in the Metro Manila area of the Philippines. REM is a participatory and qualitative evaluation method used to learn the intended and unintended results of the program. While the contexts of groups were dramatically different, with different geographies and significant cultural differences, the similarities between the outcomes strengthen the argument for what might be Unbound's contribution through the scholarship and sponsorship programs. Alumni participating in the qualitative evaluation in the Philippines, on average three years out of the program, were pursuing careers such as teaching, nursing, accounting and architectural design. Alumni participating in the evaluation in Guatemala, on average six years out of the program, mentioned employment as teachers, police officers, bakers and small-business owners. Most of the evaluation participants were employed on a full-time basis. Among the key findings were: 1. Gratitude and giving back: The feeling of gratitude and actively giving back were both connected and common across the ripple maps in Guatemala and the Philippines. Participants expressed how individuals and communities in poverty can focus internally on what little they have, but through Unbound they began to see their strengths and assets. This gratitude for what they had and for what was shared through Unbound spurred a desire to help others, whether family, friends or strangers. 2. Pride: A deep sense of pride and personal accomplishment came forward in the maps of both countries. It is a pride that comes from educational accomplishments and the ability to sustain ones family. However, it also comes from being part of, or associated with, the Unbound program itself (Philippines) or having a sponsor (Guatemala). 3. Education: Education and academic achievement show up in all ripple-effect maps created in Guatemala and the Philippines; however, their positioning and value differ between the two countries. Guatemalans viewed education as a key outcome and means to their most significant outcomes. Attaining an education meant gaining access to professional employment and caring for their families. It brought about satisfaction and pride. In the Philippines, however, alumni emphasized education as an end in itself. Having an education was the outcome. The most significant, long-term outcomes of the Unbound program were overwhelmingly both real and intangible. Housing and health, education and work were all present in the lives of Unbound alumni, yet the core of the impact remaining for formerly sponsored members lies in a moral, character-centered, reflective and goal-oriented worldview. This intangible core appears to offer a foundation for the alumni to continue to build their own tangible ripples in providing for their families and assisting community members. One benefit of the ripple-effect-mapping method, over separate evaluations of each outcome domain, is that we can see more clearly that there are links between physical and psycho-social-spiritual development. This makes an excellent case for the personalized attention, program activities and relationships that complement tangible sponsorship benefits. These components can also be called benefits. "The beauty is that each family can choose what is needed in each moment," said one participant in Guatemala. Each individual tells a different story, but all are united in their experience with Unbound. So, while these experiences do cause us to recognize the significant influences of external factors in the lives of individuals, they also emphasize the remarkable flexibility of the Unbound program. It has the potential to contribute to an individual's path out of poverty in ways unlike a standard aid-distribution or community-based development approach.
