SMILESHIP CAMPAIGN
Businesses, groups and individuals are being asked to sponsor a child for 3 years. With parental permission the business, group or individual will be given information about the child and their progress in the program, i.e. a business sponsored child.
The cost per child is $50 per month ($600 per year, $1,800 for the 3 years). The initial fund campaign was conducted May 1, 2007 through May 31, 2007. Currently, this is enabling us to provide the school principal with the number of sponsorships available for each school year.
NFCBA conducted its campaign in April 2007 (for its members only). Ambassadors will also be asking to make personal calls on key business leaders, churches and organizations to solicit sponsorships. The NFCBA, Comcast Spotlight and the Coloradoan are leading the general fund campaign.
PROJECT SMILE ENDOWMENT
In order to allow Project Smile to be sustainable, an endowment will be initiated. It is estimated that for each $1,000,000 of endowment, we can sustain the treatment of 100 children.
