EVERY DOLLAR HELPS!
Every donation, LARGE OR SMALL, means more scholarship dollars for worthy trade students. Every new participant in the trades strengthens America. Will you support us today? Make a one time contribution or set a monthly donation schedule. Consider making Can Man a line in your budget today.
WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES
95% of the money raised goes directly to the scholarship fund.
Every dollar we raised up until the time we received our 501(c)(3) status went directly to the scholarship fund. Any expenses we had during that time were purchased by organizers and volunteers from their personal funds.
After receiving charitable status, we established a policy of putting 5% of our donations in an overhead account. This money will be used for basic supplies, most of which is used for our Jack of Hearts fundraiser. Supplies include things like playing cards and raffle tickets.
A donor provided $400 to kick start our overhead fund. We have very little overhead, so we expect that in time we will be able to move funds into the scholarship fund. We hope to soon introduce merchandise such as tee shirts as donation incentives. The cost of this merchandise will be borne by sponsors.
