Funds from these events are given to families in need to cover day-to-day expenses so they can focus on their child's health, rather than their financial shortfalls. In 2017 the organization gave over $278,624 in assistance to 104 families, of which 63 families received assistance for the first time. Since its inception through 2017, SKF has helped 386 families by giving them over $1,025,270 in assistance. This all volunteer organization receives most of its referrals from the Children's Mercy Hospital Network and the University of Kansas Hospital system. SKF helps families with children in the hospital to cover such expenses as rent and mortgage payments, utilities, car payments, repairs, and gasoline. In the most unfortunate cases, SKF has paid for a child's funeral expenses. 0 0 0 300079 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 X 12 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 X Maria Brown 9139524608 PO Box 15171 Lenexa KS 66285 Brian Hoban President 3 0 X X 0 0 0 Tim Lockyear Vice President 3 0 X X 0 0 0 Kevin Wait Secretary 3 0 X X 0 0 0 Maria Brown Treasurer 8 0 X X 0 0 0 Timothy Moore Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Jeff Bullins Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Michelle Carder Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Mary Ludwikoski Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Joseph Accurso Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Derick Shackelford Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Steve Flones Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Wes Rennebaum Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 246292 0 0 139056 0 385348 0 0 0 0 0 52614 246292 81613 -28999 0 -28999 0 356349 0 0 -28999 21455 21455 278624 278624 1963 1963 610 610 8679 464 8215 2880 2880 314211 300079 5917 8215 119254 168085 900 0 3702 3385 123856 171470 12575 18050 12575 18050 X 90281 132420 21000 21000 0 0 111281 153420 123856 171470 X 42138 0 0 0 0 1 X 0 0 0 X 117801 145212 291395 311122 385348 1250878 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 117801 145212 291395 311122 385348 1250878 525819 725059 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 500 0 500 1251378 212782 0.57941 0.58314 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Other Income 2016: Refund of deposit expense from prior year.
