Organizational Overview
Martha’s Foundation Inc. (MFI) is a faith-based nonprofit organization providing 24-hour supervised residential care and comprehensive support services for pregnant and parenting teens who lack stable housing or face high-risk environments. The organization exists to prevent homelessness, state custody placement, and long-term instability by delivering trauma-informed care, life-skills development, and community-based outreach.
The 2024–2025 reporting period represents a pivotal transition from stabilization to strategic growth, marked by expanded outreach, strengthened governance, cured compliance findings, and preparation for permanent asset acquisition.
The foundation’s primary outcome remains the provision of a safe, 24-hour supervised living environment for pregnant and parenting teens.
MFI consistently housed 3–4 residents simultaneously throughout the year while maintaining a growing referral pipeline.
Through approved Alternative Compliance Requests, MFI provided immediate placement for mothers under the age of 16 who were otherwise facing:
Homelessness
Placement in state custody
Continued exposure to violent or unsafe environments
These interventions directly prevented foster care entry, preserved maternal-infant attachment, and ensured continuity of medical and behavioral health care.
The Outreach Program experienced the most significant expansion in the organization’s history during 2025.
Active outreach clients increased from 155 (June 2025) to 229 (August 2025).
12 back-to-school outreach events
7 low-income apartment complex visits
5 community and church-based distribution events
Services included diapers, wipes, food, and maternal support supplies
Outreach services generated $74,000 in earned revenue by mid-2025, with the organization tracking toward a $270,000 annual outreach goal, strengthening sustainability beyond event-based fundraising.
Through a Memorandum of Understanding with Amplify, Inc., MFI integrated the Strong Tomorrows Program, ensuring multidisciplinary, licensed support.
Residents are evaluated using the Casey Life Skills Assessment, measuring progress in:
Daily living skills
Financial literacy
Self-care and independence
Residents successfully enrolled in:
Licensed daycare services

Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) pathways through Tulsa Tech
Each resident received:
Minimum 1 hour/week of individual therapy

Focus areas included trauma recovery, emotional regulation, and healthy relational development.
To support increased scale and complexity, the Board of Directors implemented multiple professionalization measures.
In January 2025, the Board approved an Executive Director compensation adjustment to the $100,000–$102,000 range, reflecting oversight of:
9 staff members
Residential operations
Expanding outreach revenue streams
A long-standing sewer system liability was resolved through a $4,000 settlement, followed by confirmation of a stabilized 2026 lease agreement.
The Board formally approved a $500,000 Capital Campaign, launching January 1, 2026, to secure a permanent, foundation-owned residential facility.
30–50% residential capacity increase
Reduced long-term cost per resident
Elimination of lease dependency
Improved compliance flexibility and donor confidence
