The CRIS Foundation is supported by individuals, churches, and Christian and philanthropic organizations. In addition to cash contributions, there have been in-kind donations of medicines, medical supplies, and medical equipment by Sisters of Providence of Seattle, Transitions of Guatemala, the MICAH Group of Seattle, and Hearts in Motion of Guatemala. The CRIS Foundation is non-denominational and receives contributions from congregations of different Christian denominations.

The Board of Directors, management, and Guatemalan staff are currently all non-salaried volunteers. Less than three percent of CRIS Foundation income is used for fund raising (primarily the quarterly newsletter and related postage) with the remaining 97 percent funding Foundation programs and projects in Guatemala.

The Foundation provides approximately $1000 per month to support basic operations in Guatemala. Additional funding is used for specific projects and humanitarian aid related to natural disasters such as hurricane relief.
