This program provides basic clothing needs for children by outfitting them with a complete school wardrobe. For many children, these are the first new school clothes they have ever owned. The organization served approximately 15,500 children during the year.

    Expenses $2,418,041

  • The HUGS Program works with local hospitals, Phoenix Police and Fire departments, and other agencies to put smiles on the faces of traumatized children by providing the comfort of a Delivering Dreams of Arizona Teddy Bear stitched with love from Chapter members.

    Expenses $32,153

  • The Wee Help distributes layette gift bags for infants of new parents in need, with the basics for their baby, including blankets, clothing, and other essential supplies.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
