DEBARY, Fla., Sept. 24, 2019 /Standard Newswire/ -- Kairos Prison Ministry International, Inc. ("Kairos"), a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization, announced today that it has been named a "2019 Top-Rated Nonprofit" by GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user reviews of charities and nonprofits.
Kairos Prison Ministry's mission is to share the transforming love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ to impact the hearts and lives of incarcerated men, women, and youth, as well as their families, to become loving and productive citizens of their communities. Kairos achieves this mission with prisoners and their families through three programs: Kairos Inside, for incarcerated men and women; Kairos Outside, for female relatives/friends of the incarcerated; and Kairos Torch, for incarcerated youth. The programs result in an improved prison living environment, reduced recidivism after leaving prison, safer communities, and healed families based on personal transformations. Recent studies have shown that recidivism rates can be reduced by up to 50%.
"We are honored to be named a Top-Rated Nonprofit for the third year in a row in 2019," says Evelyn Lemly, CEO. "We are grateful for our accomplishments this year, including touching the lives of more than 28,000 persons impacted by incarceration."
"Kairos Prison Ministry is a great example of a nonprofit making a real difference in their community," said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits, "Their award is well-deserved recognition not only of their work, but the tremendous support they receive, as shown by the many outstanding reviews they have received from people who have direct experience working with Kairos."
