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, utility bills, car repairs and gasoline. In the most unfortunate cases SKF has paid for a child's funeral expenses. SKF raises funds to help families in need to cover day to day expenses so they can focus on their child's health rather their financial short falls. Since its inception, SKF has helped 263 families by giving them over $504,000. 0 0 0 207449 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 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 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 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X Maria Brown 9139524608 8141 Monrovia Street Lenexa KS 66215 Thomas Charles President 5.0 0 X X 0 0 0 Rick Ray Vice President 3.0 0 X X 0 0 0 Kevin Wait Secretary 3.0 0 X X 0 0 0 Maria Brown Treasurer 5.0 0 X X 0 0 0 Timothy Moore Board Member 3.0 0 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Lockyear Board member 3.0 0 X 0 0 0 Samantha Moore Board Member 5.0 0 X 0 0 0 Jeff Bullins Board Member 3.0 0 X 0 0 0 Casey McGraw Board Member 3.0 0 X 0 0 0 Brian Weber Board Member 3.0 0 X 0 0 0 Brian Hoban Board Member 3.0 0 X 0 0 0 Tim Lockyear Board Member 3 0 X 0 0 0 Jerry Woodruff Board Member from March - May 2015 3 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 178967 0 0 112428 48366 291395 0 0 0 0 0 69228 178967 97776 -28548 0 -28548 0 262847 0 0 -28548 9128 9128 190951 190951 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1284 0 1284 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1789 0 0 1789 6928 6063 865 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2614 1307 1307 0 212694 207449 3456 1789 59390 109555 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3900 0 3420 59390 116875 0 492 0 0 0 6840 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7332 X 59390 109543 0 0 0 0 59390 109543 59390 116875 50153 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 62139 118960 117801 145212 291395 735507 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 62139 118960 117801 145212 291395 735507 269972 465535 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 735507 147938 0.63294 0.7473 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Auction and Gala 179429 121959 57470 4735 35712 10509 17023 450 4002 Golf Tournament 35866 25792 10074 0 0 10074 0 0 5612 2 32900 31216 1684 0 3377 3575 1257 700 750 248195 178967 69228 4735 39089 24158 18280 1150 10364 97776 -28548 1 Children's Mercy Hospital 2401 Gillham Road Kansas City MO 64108 440605373 501(c)(3) 0 9128 Purchase price Gift cards for parents, food and drinks for parent rm at the hospital The purpose of this grant is to provide gift cards for meals and food and drinks for parents who are staying at the hospital with their children 1 0 Home mortgage and rent assistance 36 0 68400 Present value Mortgage or rent for family is paid directly to landlord or mortgage holder General assistance 16 39042 0 Present value Cash assistance to family for various expenses Auto expenses 13 0 22960 Present value Expenses for auto repairs and payments to lien holder of auto paid directly to vendor Funeral expenses 6 0 22347 Present value Funeral expenses for children paid directly to funeral provider Utilities 32 0 21256 Present value Payment of utilities including electricity, gas, water and phone service, paid directly to provider Travel expenses 7 0 13989 Present value Travel expenses for children to receive cancer treatment in other cities Medical supplies 4 0 1957 Present value Medical expenses and pharmaceuticals for children paid to provider Childcare expense 1 0 1000 Present value Childcare expenses for families with other children so parents can be at hospital with child who has cancer Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 Assistance provided to families is based upon referrals by social workers at the hospitals where the children are being treated for cancer.
