Mission

THE ED BLOCK COURAGE AWARD FOUNDATION, INC. IS A 501 C 3, DEDICATED TO RAISING AWARENESS AND PREVENTION FOR ABUSED, NEGLECTED AND AT RISK CHILDREN. THROUGH OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE NFL AND THE COURAGE HOUSE NATIONAL SUPPORT NETWORK FOR KIDS, WE FIND FACILITIES FOR ABUSED CHILDREN ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND DEDICATE THEM AS A COURAGE HOUSE WITH THE TEAM IN THEIR CITY. TO DATE THERE ARE 27 COURAGE HOUSES AND OUR GOAL REMAINS TO HAVE A HOUSE IN ALL 32 NFL TEAM CITIES.

Activities or mission (Part I)

THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THE ORGANIZATION IS TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE TO ABUSED CHILDREN BY RAISING NATIONAL AWARENESS, SUPPORTING THE PREVENTION OF CHILD ABUSE, PROVIDING FUNDS AND EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE TO THE COURAGE HOUSE NETWORK, AND PRESENTING A NATIONAL COURAGE AWARD EVENT TO SUPPORT THE MISSION OF OUR COURAGE HOUSE NETWORK FOR KIDS.

  • THE COURAGE HOUSE NATIONAL SUPPORT NETWORK FOR KIDS (COURAGE HOUSE NETWORK) - THROUGH THE CHARTER AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE FOUNDATION, NFL TEAM AND CHILDREN'S FACILITY, A GRANT IN THE AMOUNT OF TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS IS PRESENTED TO THE FACILITY UPON DEDICATION. FOLLOWING THE DEDICATION PROCESS THE FOUNDATION ASSISTS IN PROVIDING SUPPORT TO ALL COURAGE HOUSES THROUGH ANNUAL FUNDRAISING AND COORDINATING EVENTS WITH THEIR NFL TEAM FOR THE CHILDREN. EACH YEAR,THE COURAGE HOUSES ARE ASKED TO SUBMIT GRANT REQUESTS TO THE FOUNDATION. THE FIRST CHOICE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECEIVES A $10,000 GRANT WITH SMALLER GRANTS GIVEN TO THE OTHER COURAGE HOUSES.

    Expenses $123,369 · Grants $43,492

  • THE FOUNDATION INCURRED EXPENSES TO RAISE NATIONAL AWARENESS AND PREVENTION THROUGH PRINT AND DIGITAL MEDIA WITH OVER 100,000 PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS ANNUALLY. IN ADDITION, EXPENSES ARE INCURRED TO CREATE AND MAINTAIN THE ORGANIZATION'S WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA SITES WHICH WILL NOT ONLY GIVE INFORMATION AND UPDATES ABOUT THE FOUNDATION BUT ALSO EACH COURAGE HOUSE, THEIR FUNDING NEEDS, DEMOGRAPHICS UPDATES AND TESTIMONIALS.

    Expenses $60,967

  • THE FOUNDATION INCURRED EXPENSES INDIRECTLY RELATED TO THE 3-DAY NATIONAL EVENT SUCH AS CONTRACT LABOR FOR PRODUCTION, PRINTING, TRAVEL AND MARKETING FOR TICKET SALES AND SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES. THIS NATIONAL EVENT SERVES AS THE TEMPLATE, FOR ALL COURAGE HOUSES TO FOLLOW TO HONOR THEIR TEAM'S COURAGE AWARD RECIPIENT LOCALLY AND RAISE FUNDS FOR THE FACILITY AND PROGRAMS. IN ADDITION, THE FOUNDATION SPONSORS AN OUTREACH EVENT DURING THIS TIME. THE NFL PLAYERS ARE TAKEN TO THE BALTIMORE RAVENS COURAGE HOUSE TO HAVE BREAKFAST AND INTERACT WITH THE CHILDREN WHO RESIDE THERE. THE CHILDREN PUT ON A SHOW FOR THE PLAYERS AND THEN THE CHILDREN GET TO PRESENT THE PLAYERS WITH THEIR TROPHY. MANY OF THE PLAYERS CAN RELATE TO THESE CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY THEMSELVES HAD DIFFICULT CHILDHOODS. THE CHILDREN ARE GIVEN HOPE BECAUSE THEY MEET MEN WHO HAVE COME FROM POVERTY, ABUSE AND OTHER DIFFICULTIES AND HAVE OVERCOME THOSE OBSTACLES TO BECOME SUCCESSFUL, PRODUCTIVE MEMBERS OF SOCIETY.
