1MISSION operates as a community development 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a focus on empowering individuals in poverty. After years of building houses, he questioned the long-term effectiveness of traditional charity, leading to the creation of 1MISSION's distinctive model. The organization's core strategy is to provide people living in poverty the opportunity to earn a house by completing hours of service within their own communities. This model reframes beneficiaries as active participants in their own development rather than passive recipients of aid. To earn a home, families contribute hundreds of hours to locally-led initiatives, which may include planting community gardens, participating in health screenings, or teaching literacy and job skills classes. This sweat equity approach fosters a sense of ownership and dignity while simultaneously improving the broader community. Since its inception, participants have served over 370,000 hours to earn more than 1,100 homes. Operating in Mexico, El Salvador, and Nicaragua, 1MISSION's funding comes from tax-deductible donations. The organization leverages these funds by purchasing construction materials and hiring labor locally, which helps to bolster local economies. Volunteers, often from churches and schools, travel to these locations to help build houses alongside the recipient families, reducing construction costs and fostering cross-cultural partnerships. A unique aspect of its financial structure is that a group of private supporters covers overhead costs, allowing 100% of public donations to go directly to field projects. As a measure of transparency, donors receive a report upon a house's completion, connecting their contribution to a specific family. Financial data from 2022 showed total revenues of $1,885,470 with a program expense ratio of over 72%, indicating a high percentage of funds are directed toward its core mission.
