Using photography and guidance by caring mentors, the kids experienced improvements in self-confidence, behavior, communication, emotional regulation, and trust. This year, KIF increased the number of kids served from 330 to 514 and focused on revamping and expanding the Grads in Focus program, creating new live virtual and in-person programs, and redesigning and updating volunteer training and application processes to include ACES. KIF professional volunteers (photographers, writers) donated over 4,000 hours of direct service to the kids valued at $240,000, a figure not represented in the budget. Knowing the importance of staying connected to these kids during the community-wide shut down, KIF and its team of volunteer mentors worked round the clock to adapt our programs and remain in contact with the kids on a daily and weekly basis. KIF provided new live virtual programs to 160 underserved kids at 10 Boys & Girls Club branches from April through August. Then in October 2020, KIF became one of only a handful of organizations to resume safe in-person programming with the development of six programs designed to follow CDC guidelines. 39 kids ages 7-10 from Childrens First Leadership Academy, a school serving mostly homeless children, participated in a new 3-week program, and 30 kids from Boys & Girls Club participated in a new 2-week after-school program. KIF also created a Lifeline program providing critical emergency services to 60 kids and their families, including temporary housing and education assistance, food, clothing, and emotional support. KIF served 45 at-risk youth from Children First Leadership Academy, Boys & Girls Club, and Sequoia Deaf School through its intensive 9-week after-school program. 25 volunteer mentors taught the kids photography and life skills, forging resilience by nurturing self-expression, engagement, accountability, confidence, trust, and hope. The program typically culminates in a free public Exhibit Opening event which unfortunately was canceled due to the pandemic. KIF also reimagined its Grads program and increased outreach resulting in the tripling of enrollment. 180 youth are now participating in this year-round program providing quarterly team-building outings with their mentors, private online forums, and monthly photo challenges to keep them connected to their peers, mentors, and the exciting world they have discovered. 130096 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 7 0 3 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false X 7 6 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X X Tom Waite 6027933315 6502 E Exeter Blvd Scottsdale AZ 85251 Karen Shell Executive Director 45.00 0.00 X X 63333 0 0 Anndee Rickey Director of Programs and Eval 40.00 0.00 X 49833 0 0 Rachel Frazier Johnson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Cindy Bryant Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dave Mason Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bernard Banahan Board Member 0.50 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tom Waite Treasurer 15.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Michael Oleskow Board Chairman 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 113166 0 0 0 false false false 31972 279416 19250 311388 Program Fees 900099 3035 3035 3035 31972 314423 3035 0 0 X 63333 12500 32833 18000 58171 52763 5174 234 9023 3572 4593 858 3600 3600 37941 37941 51829 37901 13928 852 38 10 804 4201 1954 2247 5836 1684 3272 880 13200 13200 1832 260 41 1531 250 250 1691 1691 Dues and Subscriptions 345 345 Printing and reproduction 11504 6521 3445 1538 Event Expenses 1342 49 1293 Other 4770 4770 15970 14808 911 251 285690 130096 90017 65577 208488 244241 2675 5618 1971 3751 3647 214914 247888 1190 12988 1190 12988 X 213724 234900 213724 234900 214914 247888 28733 -7557 0 X false false false X 56303 46570 89023 281095 292138 765129 56303 46570 89023 281095 292138 765129 105091 660038 765129 3035 0.86260 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 5618 1971 3647 3647 Other liabilities 1626 PPP Loan 11362 12988 X X X X X true Christie Davis 3412 E Valley Vista Lane Paradise Valley AZ 85253 General fundraising false 220045 36172 183873 220045 36172 183873 General 31972 31972 1293 31972 31972 1293 1293 30679 Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 The Treasurer of the Organization distributes a PDF copy of the Form 990 to all of the Board Members for review and comment prior to the return being filed.
