Six Programs, One Purpose — A Beacon of Hope for the Community
A word of gratitude
“Hope is not just covering bodies or filling plates — it is restoring confidence, dignity, and a sense of belonging.”
This report reflects the impact of New Hope Family Life Ministries through December 31, 2025, serving individuals and families in Radcliff, Kentucky and the surrounding communities of Hardin County.
In 2025 our neighbors leaned on us, and you helped us answer. Across the year our programs distributed thousands of meals, clothed hundreds of families, mentored our youth, and welcomed a brand-new Community Garden into the New Hope family. We are especially proud that direct giving and program support both grew this year, even as we held administrative costs to roughly four percent of everything we spent — meaning nearly every dollar reached the people we serve.
We remain a beacon: an environment that strengthens the community and nurtures relationships through recreational, educational, social, health, and wellness opportunities — while curtailing hunger one meal at a time. Thank you for your contributions, your prayers, and your ongoing support.

Expenses by category
Revenue trends: 2025 vs 2024
Earned program revenue and individual giving both grew strongly in 2025. Total revenue was 9.5% lower than 2024, driven almost entirely by a large 2024 fundraising event that was not repeated at the same scale. Expenses exceeded revenue by $6,335.87, drawn from the ministry’s reserves; New Hope reported net assets of more than $1.9 million at year-end 2024, providing a stable long-term foundation. Rebuilding the fundraising calendar is a 2026 priority. Complete financial statements are available at nhflm.org and upon request.
