Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE MISSION OF THE ELM PROJECT IS TO ENHANCE THE LIVES OF UNDERSERVED YOUTH LIVING WITH SICKLE CELL DISEASE BY PROVIDING AN ENRICHING SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE AND THE TOOLS FOR A HEALTHY, INDEPENDENT FUTURE.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE MISSION OF THE ELM PROJECT: TO ENHANCE THE LIVES OF UNDERSERVED YOUTH LIVING WITH SICKLE CELL DISEASE BY PROVIDING AN ENRICHING SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE AND THE TOOLS FOR A HEALTHY, INDEPENDENT FUTURE.

  • A ONE-WEEK RESIDENTIAL SUMMER CAMP OFFERED EACH AUGUST FOR CHILDREN AGES 7-16 LIVING WITH SICKLE CELL DISEASE, ALONG WITH THEIR SIBLINGS. THE PROGRAM FOCUSES ON EXPOSING KIDS TO A VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES THAT THEY WOULD NOT OTHERWISE HAVE ACCESS TO DUE TO THEIR DEMANDING MEDICAL ROUTINES, FINANCIAL CHALLENGES, AND THE SOCIAL STIGMA WHICH CAN LIMIT ACCESS TO TRADITIONAL CAMP EXPERIENCES. WE OFFER DAILY ACTIVITIES SUCH AS BOATING, SWIMMING, SPORTS, ARTS & CRAFTS, DRAMA, MUSIC, FILM, ARCHERY, AND MORE. WE DO ALL OF THIS THROUGH AN ALL-VOLUNTEER STAFF, INCLUDING A ROBUST MEDICAL TEAM WHICH OPERATES 24/7 SO THAT THE CHILDREN LIVING WITH SICKLE CELL CAN BE CLOSELY MONITORED AND PROPERLY CARED FOR THROUGHOUT THE WEEK.

    Expenses $363,566

  • A YEAR-ROUND LEADERSHIP PROGRAM FOR TEENS WHO HAVE AGED OUT OF OUR CAMP AMERIKIDS PROGRAM (16 AND OLDER). IT IS A TWO-YEAR PROGRAM CREATED TO SUPPORT YOUTH THROUGH THE TRANSITION FROM HIGH SCHOOL INTO ADULTHOOD, WHICH FOCUSES ON BUILDING SELF-ESTEEM AND EXPOSING PARTICIPANTS TO NEW OPPORTUNITIES, WHILE HELPING THEM NAVIGATE THE CHALLENGES OF BECOMING AN ADULT.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
