Mission

AMURT is a relief and development organization with projects in thirty countries across the globe, applying its philosophy that every human being deserves the opportunity to enjoy a fulfilling life. This often translates into helping people procure the basic necessities of life: shelter, healthy food and water, education, health awareness and income generating capacity. We believe that the happiness of one depends upon the happiness of many, so we build bonds of solidarity amongst people.

Programs

We respond to major disasters around the world, including the current disasters in Haiti and Myanmar. In addition, we support HIV/AIDS programs in Kenya and South Africa; capacity building and urban renewal in Haiti; water programs in Ghana; and micro-enterprise and women's cooperatives in the Philippines.

Balance Sheet: Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2007

Notes
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 long survive, but the types of assets and liabilities also must 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.
