💰 Estimated Sources of Funding
To support our initiatives and amplify our impact, we are actively pursuing a diverse range of funding sources:
-
Fundraising Events - We will organize engaging community events designed to raise funds while providing valuable marketing exposure for our local small business partners.
-
Casino Revenue - Our organization will allocate a portion of its casino funding to directly support our programs and outreach efforts.
-
Grants and Matching Government Programs - We are committed to applying for every eligible grant opportunity, including matching government grants, to maximize our financial resources.
-
Support from Larger Non-Profits and Corporations - We will seek strategic partnerships and financial support from established non-profit organizations and corporate sponsors who share our mission and values.
We’re 100% volunteer-run, which means there are no administrative costs — every dollar raised (minus only credit card processing fees) goes directly to building the playground.
