Overview

Mission

The general purpose for which this corporation was formed was to provide services and support to children ages 6 to 18 years who have experienced the death/loss of a loved one. A "loved one" is a deceased person with whom the minor had a significant, ongoing personal relationship, including, but not limited to, a parent, sibling, grandparent, guardian, aunt, uncle, cousin or close friend. The corporation will sponsor weekend camps so grieving children can interact with and create friendships with other children or teens who have lost a loved one while participating in various indoor and outdoor camp-appropriate activities under the direction of trained bereavement counselors.

What it reported doing in 2025

Provide free camp for childcren who have experienced a loss of a lovd one. We provide a safe enviornment for grieving kids and teens as they share memories, make new friends, and hav fun.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
