We are made up of more than 4,000 mission workers from more than 65 nationalities. Our multicultural, multi-skilled teams serve among diverse people groups in more than 70 countries on six continents as we respond to need, proclaim the gospel and equip the Church. God has used SIM to plant thousands of churches serving millions of believers and seekers, establish over 60 hospitals and community health ministries, found around 90 institutions for training Christian leaders, complete 33 Bible translations, distribute sources of safe water for more than a quarter million people.

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Oct 01 - Sep 30

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.
