Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

TO NURTURE THE SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, AND ACADEMIC SUCCESS OF CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IMPACTED BY THE JUVENILE DEPENDENCY CARE SYSTEM IN DESOTO, MANATEE, AND SARASOTA COUNTIES.

  • NORMALCY AND ENRICHMENT - MOST CHILDREN IN FOSTER CARE COME FROM CHAOTIC AND ABUSIVE ENVIRONMENTS. MANY HAVE NEVER HAD A BIRTHDAY CAKE, A BOOK OR A STUFFED ANIMAL, MUCH LESS THE CALM, UNDIVIDED ATTENTION OF AN ADULT IN THEIR LIVES. THEIR NEEDS RANGE FROM THE PROFOUND TO THE MORE MUNDANE VOLUNTEER CHILD ADVOCATES APPLY FOR FUNDING THROUGH THE CHILDREN'S GUARDIAN FUND (CGF) TO PROVIDE SIMPLE NEEDS SUCH AS A PROM DRESS OR SOCCER CLEATS, OR LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCES SUCH AS SPECIALIZED SUMMER CAMPS OR MUSIC, ART OR SPORTS LESSONS. EACH REQUEST IS TAILORED TO A PARTICULAR CHILD'S PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING. NEXT STEP - THROUGH THIS PROGRAM,CGF ADVOCATES FOR ADOLESCENTS AGE 13 TO 23 WHO NEED EXTRA SUPPORT AS THEY TRANSITION OUT OF STATE CARE AND INTO SELF- SUFFICIENCY. OUR GOAL IS TO HELP THESE CHILDREN BECOME MORE SUCCESSFUL ACADEMICALLY AND ACQUIRE IMPORTANT LIFE SKILLS BEFORE THEY START LIVING INDEPENDENTLY. FUNDS RAISED FOR THIS AT-RISK GROUP MAY BE USED FOR: HOUSING AND UTILITY DEPOSITS, BUS PASSES, GAS CARDS OR BIKES, CAREER CLOTHING SUCH AS UNIFORMS OR DRESS CLOTHES FOR A FIRST JOB, MENTORS AND PEER TUTORS.

    Expenses $577,269 · Grants $377,150

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.
