Overview

Mission

To enhance the quality of life in central Florida through the charitable contribution of resources to organizations dedicated to improving lives, health and education in our community.

What it reported doing in 2024

Day for kids - almost 200 economically disadvantaged children, who reside in the neighborhood of camping world stadium, enjoyed a morning of food, fun, and festivities at fun spot america theme parks, with the players participating in the pop-tarts and cheez-it citrus bowls. These events allow these disadvantaged children from the lift footprint to interact with players in a one-on-one environment in the spirit of camaraderie, fellowship and fun.dream ticket clearinghouse - through this initiative fcsf annually distributes complimentary tickets to the Florida classic, cheez-it citrus bowl and pop-tarts bowl, feast on the 50, as well as other college and professional sporting events to economically, physically and/or emotionally challenged children and organizations in the central Florida area. 200 complimentary tickets were distributed.summer camp for more than 25 years fcsf hosted a summer camp for economically-disadvantaged local middle school children in grades five through eight. Due to the covid-19 pandemic our focus shifted to k-8 efforts in the lift footprint. With the opening of the jacqueline bradley & clarence otis boys and girls club in 2021, we were able to provide year-round membership, in addition to eight weeks of summer camp on the grounds of this state-of-the-art club to more than 30 neighborhood families in need. Fcsports foundation provides the year-long membership and the eight-week summer camp session free of charge to all the families of these participants. We are delighted to fill this essential need to these children and their families. Our goal remains providing a safe haven, a productive alternative to the streets at a time when school is not in session to help these young people build long-term skills. We align with the boys & girls club to empower youth to excel in school, become good citizens and lead healthy productive lives. The b&g club focuses on six key areas: mentorship, youth advocacy, diversity equity and inclusion, safe places, mental health and work force readiness. The programs these children participate in include but are not limited to: sports & recreation, education, the arts, health & wellness, and character & leadership.

Operating model

Distribution model

  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
