ALL
of our proceeds are divided and donated
amongst a variety of children focused
charities as well as identified individual
children in need of help.
Some of our contributions are made to
established charities that have a mission
that is specifically focused on pediatric
burn victims or brain injured children.
We also contribute funds for the pirchase
of specified and designated items, programs
or facilities.
We also recognize that there are a number
of children who have specific needs that
don't meet normal or designated giving
requirements. We do retaining a portion
of our available funds to help these kids.
Once a child in need is identified to
us, we will investigate the need through
medical channels to validate the need,
the type of help that is required and
whether the specific circumstances meet
our criteria.
At least one physician holds a position
on the Board of Directors and has the
responsibility of validating the medical
information. Once this step is completed
the remainder of the Board will meet to
approve any individual monetary award.
NO funds will be given directly to any child or family member.
Laps Of Hope, Inc. will make contributions to defray documented medical expenses, purchase medical equipment or help make a home environment safe for a child in need.
We are a completely volunteer organization.
Our expenses include promotion, typical
business operational costs and race operations.
Each year we will publish a full disclosure
of all monies raised, race operations
expenses and all of the donations that
we make so that you will be able to watch
our progress for yourself and feel good
about helping support the mission.
