Funding Forecast

KKIDS forecast of revenues for 2017 is $50,000. The stable core funding is from Federal/State grants, Public     Foundations, private parties, and fundraiser events.  Anticipated growth from these funding sources is     estimated to be 15% over the next three years. KKIDS will focus on rapidly increasing funding from the sources of  private donations, business sponsorships and fundraising campaigns and grants.  By 2020,  goal revenue should be in excess of $76,000.

     This plan in effect and working the way we envision it moves us forward with building the future of KKIDS.  Our focus will be in location purchase and development.   Finding a piece of property that will meet criteria to be the home chapter of KKIDS to set up camp, this will set the tempo for each chapter.
