Activities or mission (Part I)
PROVIDE CHRISTIAN-BASED CHILDCARE TO FAMILIES IN NEED IN THE SIOUX FALLS, SD COMMUNITY.
-
COMPASSION CHILD CARE WAS FOUNDED TO PROVIDE DAYCARE FOR FAMILIES IN NEED WHERE THEY CAN EXPERIENCE THE COMPASSION OF GOD AND HEAR THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS CHRIST. THE ORGANIZATION USES EVERY ASPECT OF THE DAYCARE PROGRAM (ART, MUSIC, LANGUAGE, ETC.) TO SHARE THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS CHRIST. THE ORGANIZATION STRIVES TO TREAT ALL CHILDREN WITH THE DIGNITY, EQUALITY, AND RESPECT THEY DESERVE AS CHILDREN CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF GOD. LOW-INCOME FAMILIES OFTEN STRUGGLE WITH AFFORDABLE CARE AND TRADITIONAL DAYCARE HOURS OF OPERATION. THE ORGANIZATION OFFERS LOWER INCOME WORKING FAMILIES THE MEANS TO ACCESS CERTIFIED, COMPREHENSIVE CHILDCARE AT A PRICE THAT ENABLES THEM TO STABILIZE THEIR OVERALL FINANCIAL LIFE. CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O.EACH FAMILY PAYS A WEEKLY TUITION AMOUNT THAT IS DETERMINED BY REVIEWING THEIR INCOME AND DEBT. EACH FAMILY MEETS WITH A STAFF MEMBER AND A BOARD MEMBER EACH YEAR TO REVIEW THEIR TUITION AND DETERMINE THE APPROPRIATE AMOUNT TO PAY. DAYCARE IS AVAILABLE MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY FROM 6:30 A.M. TO 6:30 P.M. AGE-APPROPRIATE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AND SET DEVELOPMENT GOALS ARE OFFERED FOR EACH CHILD. THESE GOALS ARE COMMUNICATED TO PARENTS REGULARLY. ADDITIONALLY, PARENTS ARE OFFERED LIFE DEVELOPMENT AND LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. THE ORGANIZATION PROMOTES AND COMMUNICATES OTHER COMMUNITY PROGRAMS THAT CAN HELP FAMILIES FLOURISH. THE ORGANIZATION SERVED 196 FAMILIES IN 2024. 91 PERCENT OF THE FAMILIES SERVED WERE AT OR BELOW 209 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL. 78 PERCENT OF THE FAMILIES SERVED WERE BELOW 185 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL.
Expenses $2,030,758 · Revenue $521,536

ONE OF COMPASSION CHILD CARE'S CORE VALUES IS BEING FAMILY FOCUSED. THAT CORE VALUE DRIVES A PROGRAM FOR SINGLE MOTHERS WHERE THE ORGANIZATION OPERATES A HOME. A TOTAL OF 6 MOTHERS AND 10 CHILDREN WERE SERVED IN 2024. THE HOUSE MANAGERS BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE MOTHERS AND PROVIDE A STABLE INFLUENCE IN THEIR LIVES. EACH MOTHER PAYS $300 A MONTH TO LIVE IN THE HOME AND THEY GET A PORTION OF THAT BACK IF THEY LIVE IN THE HOME FOR ONE YEAR. THE CHILDREN OF THE MOTHERS MUST BE ENROLLED IN THE DAYCARE IN ORDER FOR MOMS TO QUALIFY FOR THIS PROGRAM.
Expenses $337,228 · Revenue $17,247
-
ONE OF COMPASSION CHILD CARE'S CORE VALUES IS BEING FAMILY FOCUSED, AND THEREFORE ALL FAMILIES ARE REQUIRED TO ATTEND A THREE WEEK RESOURCE CLASS. EACH FAMILY ATTENDED THE THREE WEEK RESOURCE CLASSES AND CHOSE CLASSES THAT WERE APPROPRIATE FOR THEM SUCH AS PARENTING, BUDGETING, UNDERSTANDING PRESCHOOL CURRICULUM, HEALTH INSURANCE, OR CAR BUYING. EACH FAMILY COMPLETED CLASS ASSIGNMENTS TO HELP THEM PUT INTO PRACTICE THE THINGS TAUGHT. THE CLASSES PROVIDED AN OPPORTUNITY FOR EACH FAMILY TO REVIEW THEIR CURRENT BUDGET, HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE, AND CAR NEEDS.
