Undesignated Gifts
These charitable gifts are directed to our Agency Endowment. Administrative and fund-raising costs are only 8 percent of the overall Agency budget, far below charity averages. This income helps supplement staff salaries and benefits since it can be a challenge for a school like ours to offer competitive compensation. Teachers, therapists and aides are key to our kids’ success—without them, we wouldn’t be what we are today.
