Overview
Mission
To provide HOPE when HOPE seems lost; assisting families after the loss of a child through various bereavement programs and services
What it reported doing in 2015
HOPE bears are 10" brown teddy bears with our logo on them that are provided to hospitals as well as mailed all over the US to place into empty aching arms of stillborn, NICU and SIDS loss parents. 245 total bears were sent out
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 66% 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 program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
