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 (4)
- $10,905 spent. OUR COMMUNITY PROGRAM FUNDS IMPROVEMENTS TO COMMUNITY FACILITIES AND PROVIDES OPERATIONAL FUNDS TO BETTER SERVE CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES. THIS PROGRAM CAME INTO PLAY IN 2022 WITH THE PROJECT, "REJUVENATE BADGER PARK". LOCAL BUSINESSES AND RESIDENTS OF PESHTIGO, WI DONATED TO HAVE THE LOCAL PARK REBUILT TO BETTER ACCOMMODATE CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES. IN 2023 & 2024 THIS PROJECT CONTINUED TO ACCEPT DONATIONS TO FUND FINAL TOUCHES ON THE PARK AND PREPARE FOR THE DONOR BRICKS TO BE CREATED AND INSTALLED (HAPPENING IN 2025). 2024 DIDN'T HAVE ANY OTHER COMMUNITY FOCUSED PROJECTS IN THE WORKS.
- $8,918 spent. THE JOY PROGRAM. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO BRING JOY TO CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH FREE EVENTS. AT EACH EVENT WE WILL ENCOURAGE THE FEELING OF JOY BY OFFERING THINGS SUCH AS FUN ACTIVITIES TO ACCOMMODATE ALL ABILITIES, FOOD AND DRINKS, SOCIAL INTERACTION ALL WHILE PROVIDING A SAFE AND WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT FOR EVERYONE IN ATTENDANCE. WE WILL ADVERTISE EACH UPCOMING EVENT ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES AND HAVE OUR PARTNERED NONPROFITS ADVERTISE OUR EVENTS TO REACH AS MANY FAMILIES AS WE CAN (SYBIL HOPP, HAND N' HAND, DSAW, CP CENTER, YMCA, LOVIN' THE SKIN I'M IN, AND ASPIRO). WE ALSO EMAIL OUR MEMBERS WITH UPDATES WHENEVER NECESSARY. CURRENTLY, WE OPEN SIGN UP PRIOR TO THESE EVENTS ON OUR GIVEBUTTER WEBSITE ON A FIRST-COME BASIS FOR UP TO APPROXIMATELY 100 FAMILIES. TO HOST EACH EVENT FOR FREE, WE HAVE COLLECTED DONATIONS FROM LOCAL INDIVIDUALS AND BUSINESSES. MANY LOCAL BUSINESSES HAVE EXPRESSED THEIR EAGERNESS TO WORK WITH AND SUPPORT OUR FOUNDATION THROUGH YEARLY FUNDING. WE ALSO HOST AN ANNUAL GOLF OUTING TO RAISE AWARENESS OF OUR MISSION AND ADDITIONAL DONATIONS. THE 4TH ANNUAL OUTING WAS HELD ON SEPTEMBER 7TH, 2024, AT LEDGEVIEW GOLF COURSE, 3149 DICKINSON RD., DE PERE, WI 54115. WE RAISED OVER $15,000 TO SUPPORT FUTURE PROGRAMMING. VOLUNTEERS FROM THE COMMUNITY AND BOARD/COMMITTEE MEMBERS HAVE WILLINGLY OFFERED THEIR TIME TO HELP BRING THESE EVENTS TO LIFE. OTHER JOY EVENTS HELD THIS YEAR INCLUDED: "MOVIE NIGHT" ON SATURDAY, APRIL 27, 2024, AT DE PERE CINEMA. "THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY PARTY" ON SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2024, AT BUZZ SOCIAL BOWLING ALLEY.

"FALL FEST," ON OCTOBER 7 & 17, 2024, AT BERRYLAND - PUMPKINS. LASTLY, THE HOLIDAY PARTY AT GREEN BAY BOTANICAL GARDENS ON DECEMBER 13, 2024.
- THE CONFIDENCE PROGRAM. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO OFFER EXPERIENCES THAT BUILD CONFIDENCE IN CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES. THIS YEAR WE DID NOT GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO OFFER A "SPECIFIC" CONFIDENCE-FOCUSED EVENT BUT RATHER INCORPORATED THE THEME OF THIS INTO OUR JOY AND INCLUSION EVENTS. MANY OF OUR JOY AND INCLUSION EVENTS DO HELP TO BUILD CONFIDENCE AND CROSS INTO THIS CATEGORY. THE GOAL OF THESE EVENTS IS TO INSTILL CONFIDENCE, COMMUNICATION AND INVOLVEMENT FOR THE CHILD THE ENTIRE EVENT. WE HOPE THAT THESE EXPERIENCES WILL CARRY OVER INTO THEIR EVERYDAY ROUTINE TO HELP THEM FEEL MORE A PART OF SOCIETY AS THEY CONTINUE TO GROW UP.
- THE INCLUSION PROGRAM. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO PROVIDE CHILDREN WITH DISABILITIES WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE COMMUNITY EVENTS AT NO COST. IT IS MEANT TO PROMOTE INCLUSION BY GETTING THESE CHILDREN OUT INTO THE COMMUNITY EITHER THROUGH A DIRECT EXPERIENCE OR THROUGH A HOSTED INCLUSION EVENT. APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN YEAR-ROUND FOR FAMILIES TO APPLY FOR DIRECT EXPERIENCES AND RECIPIENTS WILL BE SELECTED BY OUR BOARD. THE CHILD MUST HAVE A DISABILITY TO BE ELIGIBLE. ACTIVITIES WILL BE FUNDED BY PUBLIC DONATIONS, THE PROCEEDS FROM FUNDRAISERS, AND SELLING LOGO INSCRIBED APPAREL, STICKERS AND JEWELRY. THESE PRODUCTS WILL BE AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE ON OUR WEBSITE AND AT ALL OUR EVENTS. WE HOSTED A NEW ZOO EVENT ON SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 2024, WHERE CHILDREN WERE ABLE TO FEED THE PELICANS. WE ALSO HOSTED A TIMBER RATTLERS FAMILY SOCIAL AT THE STADIUM ON SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 2024. A GREEN BAY BOTANICAL GARDEN SOCIAL WAS HOSTED ON WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 2024. LASTLY, A KROC CENTER FAMILY SOCIAL WAS ON THURSDAY, SEPT. 19, 2024, FOR ALL TO GATHER AND SWIM AMONGST OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS. AGAIN, MANY OF OUR JOY EVENTS FOSTER INCLUSION IN OUR COMMUNITY AS WELL.
