About CORD GROUP

The Cord Group is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit ministry based in Ada, Michigan that provides direct benevolence, partner grantmaking, and short-term funding to people and mission-led projects in need. The organization describes its work as a mix of personal benevolence, early "venture" funding for new missions and missionaries, and partnership-based fundraising to meet specific needs.

The organization uses a combination of direct assistance (emergency aid, medical/adoption support) and grantmaking to partner organizations and missionaries; recent IRS filings (Form 990) show active financial activity through 2024. The Cord Group operates with a small core staff and volunteer board and maintains an active website with beneficiary stories and impact examples.
