Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Programs described in its return (1)
- $20,388 spent. During the year we coordinated the donations of new belongings (clothing etc) for children entering foster or kinship care. What wasn't donated we purchased new (when funds were available) and deliver to family within 24-48 hours when able. Using a rental office we also keep some new items on hand such as beds, mattresses, hygiene, backpacks, water bottles, household items, luggage, socks, toys, books, bedding, pillows, diapers, wipes, feminine care, school supplies and more for new placements. We had bowling, waterpark, mini city, glow golfing and jump station event days. At a foster care picnic, we hosted a table with free school supplies and provided a gift to each family that came. Lastly, we hosted a Christmas party at our local museum, were the children played games, crafts, food, and received new items from tables we had set up. There was a larger prize giveaway of a gift card and everyone else got smaller gift cards.
