Managing Our Funds
Make-A-Wish® Nebraska finances endeavors through corporate sponsorships, special events, foundation grants and individual contributions. However, we do not solicit funds by telephone and receive no federal or state funding. As a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, all contributions are deductible to the extent permitted by law.
At Make-A-Wish, we take our responsibility for the monies donated to our cause very seriously and are pleased to confirm that according to the fiscal year 2019 audit results, Make-A-Wish Foundation of Nebraska spent 82% of every dollar on wish granting and related program expenses. Only 8% of every dollar was spent on management and general costs and 10% was allocated to fundraising.
For full financial details please review our most recent FY19 audit, FY19 Annual Report or our FY18 Form 990.
