Mission
REFRESH MENTORING IS A NON-DENOMINATIONAL, NON-PROFIT CHRISTIAN MINISTRY THAT SEEKS TO INVITE AND EQUIP EVERY WOMAN TO EXPERIENCE FRESH LIFE IN JESUS THROUGH HEALTHY MENTORING RELATIONSHIPS. REFRESH MENTORING REACHES REAL WOMEN, EMPOWERING THEM TO BE WHO GOD HAS DESIGNED THEM TO BE AS THEY LIVE INTENTIONALLY AND BIBLICALLY. FREE TRAINING, COACHING, AND RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE TO EQUIP WOMEN OF ALL AGES AND WALKS OF LIFE. THESE TOOLS AND RESOURCES WILL BE MOST BENEFICIAL WHEN THEY ARE USED IN THE CONTEXT OF LIFE-ON-LIFE DISCIPLESHIP. WITH FAMILIES MORE SPREAD OUT AND LIVING IN A VARIETY OF CONTEXTS MENTORING RELATIONSHIPS ARE MORE CRUCIAL THAN EVER. WE NO LONGER HAVE A VILLAGE TO HELP RAISE OUR FAMILIES AND ENCOURAGE SPIRITUAL GROWTH. WE BELIEVE WHEN WOMEN INTENTIONALLY INVEST IN OTHER WOMEN, AS TITUS 2:3-5 AND 2 TIMOTHY 2:2 HELP MODEL, THE WHOLE BODY OF CHRIST BECOMES MORE BEAUTIFUL AND THE CHURCH IS STRENGTHENED.

No independent contractors reported.
Who gave
Contributor names are not public for this form type.
Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.
Finances
Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Where the money went
Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
