During the reporting period, the organization trained 24 Emerging Leaders through SNAP training and mentoring sessions, reaching approximately 170 beneficiaries via replica training efforts. Despite delays caused by the stop-work order, planning is underway to restart the Ideathon small projects process, which aims to empower faith leaders to develop community-driven initiatives. Additionally, the organization facilitated an interfaith dialogue through a multifaith alliance leadership workshop in the Dominican Republic, attended by over 165 church leaders from diverse denominations across Cuba. The workshop resulted in the drafting of a joint memorandum of understanding, symbolizing a collective commitment to advocacy against repression. These activities directly support the organization's exempt purpose of strengthening faith-based leadership, fostering interfaith unity, and promoting civil society action to defend religious freedom. This service has focused on alleviating the hardships faced by individuals persecuted for their religious or political beliefs and strengthening interfaith cooperation amid ongoing repression. During the quarter, the organization distributed over 20,297 pounds of aid, including food, hygiene supplies, and health products, benefiting more than 2,131 individuals-including prisoners, persecuted individuals, and their families. Distributions included containers of aid shipped to Cuba, local food purchases totaling over 2,102 bags, and emergency supplies for high-risk beneficiaries. Although the operational suspension limited activities temporarily, the organization resumed distributions promptly after the suspension was lifted, ensuring continuous support. Additionally, the organization promoted interfaith solidarity through the successful on-island forums and roundtables, fostering strategic partnerships and advocacy efforts. The recent multifaith alliance workshop in the Dominican Republic, attended by over 165 faith leaders, produced a joint memorandum of understanding to advocate collectively for religious rights. These efforts advance the organization's purpose of defending religious freedom, supporting victims, and promoting interfaith unity in a hostile environment. This program has maintained a robust evidence-based approach to documenting violations and raising international awareness of religious repression in Nicaragua. During the quarter, the organization's partners documented 69 new incidents of religious freedom violations, including harassment, surveillance, threats, and judicial intimidation, with particular focus on Catholic clergy and faith communities. They also recorded 49 cases involving exiled victims, including priests and lay faith leaders forced into exile. These case notes and testimonies strengthen advocacy efforts and are incorporated into the Nicaragua Country Report and regional human rights assessments, such as OLIRE's annual report. The organization actively engaged with international forums, including the IRF Summit, where it highlighted Nicaragua's crisis, and resumed publication of its Faith Under Fire newsletter to disseminate timely information. Additionally, collaborations with academic institutions like Pepperdine University have fostered research and advocacy initiatives positioning Nicaragua as a case study of religious repression. Support for legal aid and emergency assistance to exiles-helping faith leaders obtain legal status, housing, and medical care-further exemplifies the organization's commitment to its exempt purpose of protecting faith communities and advancing religious freedom. 7434997 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 9 0 9 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 10 10 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 FL X TEO A BABUN JR 3058848400 7495 NW 7TH STREET Miami FL 33126 TEO A BABUN JR DIRECTOR 40.00 X 216461 0 0 FRANK W ALLCORN IV CHAIRMAN 3.00 X 0 0 0 DANIEL THOMAS SECRETARY 3.00 X 0 0 0 ROLLIN BANCROFT TREASURER 5.00 X 0 0 0 DR PAUL R WILLIAMS BOARD MEMBERS 1.00 X 0 0 0 JOSE M GARCIA BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 SANDRA RIPLEY GOODMAN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 OMAR ALEMAN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 ARIEL DIAZ BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 IRINA VILARINO BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 216461 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1671780 5794181 7465961 248796 248796 29205 0 29205 29205 29205 7743962 0 278001 0 752424 548324 204100 384001 248526 135475 431919 357320 74599 5888 2813 3075 64261 22305 41956 65818 33002 32816 70120 65551 4569 1390 1390 44168 44168 3432 3432 2490 2490 PROGRAM ACTIVITIES - CO 5492707 5492707 PROGRAM ACTIVITIES 600835 580522 20313 CONSULTANTS 57177 36677 20500 MISCELLANEOUS 40003 40003 114533 45860 68673 8131166 7434997 696169 0 206671 113461 7326 3520 11654 99773 99773 3432 0 445243 216906 36508 7200 702700 349221 117743 112874 473516 476159 53343 89294 644602 678327 X 58098 -329106 58098 -329106 702700 349221 -387204 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 4937697 7621610 8542111 7285176 7465961 35852555 38788 248796 287584 4937697 7621610 8542111 7323964 7714757 36140139 0 0 0 36140139 13 2463 26 2502 13 2463 26 2502 24522 78284 12701 115507 4962232 7702357 8554838 7323964 7714757 36258148 0.99670 0.00010 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 99773 99773 0 216906 11654 0 0 INVESTMENTS 216906 C 216906 LINE OF CREDIT 89294 89294 7743962 0 7743962 0 7743962 8131166 0 8131166 0 8131166 CENTRAL AMERICA & THE CARRIBBEAN PROGRAM SERVICES FOOD & HURRICANE SUPPLIES 5492707 0 0 0 0 0 0 5492707 0 5492707 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 TEO A BABUN JR DIRECTOR 216461 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 216461 0 0 0 VICTORIA BABUN DAUGHTER 28402 0 X OTHER 39 5492707 0 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 3 MANAGEMENT DELEGATED TO TEO A.
