| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A - CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER: | THE FOUNDATION OPENED ITS FIRST CHILDCARE FACILITY IN 2011 AND OFFERS FLEXIBLE HOURS DURING THE WEEK FOR CHILDREN SIX WEEKS TO FIVE YEARS OF AGE AND AN AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM FOR THOSE AGES FIVE TO TWELVE. THE CENTER IS A SECURED FACILITY WITH SAFETY CODED DOORS AND CAMERAS THROUGHOUT THE FACILITY. THE CENTER HAS FULL TIME, PART TIME AND DROP IN SERVICES. THE FOUNDATION FOLLOWS GODLY PRINCIPLES AND STRIVES FOR EXCELLENCE OF CARE FOR THOSE FIRST RESPONDERS AND ACTIVE MILITARY EMPLOYEES WHO SERVE AND PROTECT THE COMMUNITY AND OUR COUNTRY. THE CENTER HAS SERVED OVER 7,181 FAMILIES FROM 27 DIFFERENT LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, FIREFIGHTERS STATIONS AND MILITARY BRANCHES. WE HAVE MAINTAINED THE FLEXIBLE HOURS THAT THESE EMPLOYEES NEED FOR DIFFERENT SHIFT WORK AND HAVE KEPT THE PROGRAM AFFORDABLE. THE CENTER IS OPEN NEARLY ALL HOLIDAYS. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR 2023/2024, MORE IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE IN ENRICHING THE OUTDOOR PLAY AREAS BY ADDING OUTDOOR EQUIPMENT FOR PLAY ENRICHMENT. ADDITIONAL FOCUS WAS PLACED ON THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF STAFF AND TEACHERS THROUGH A SERIES COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE PROGRAMS, SAZAEYC CONFERENCE OPPORTUNITY, TRAINING AND ENCOURAGING THE PURSUIT OF STUDIES IN ECE. THE FOUNDATION IS CURRENTLY WORKING HARD IN RESEARCHING AND PLANNING FOR A SECOND LOCATION IN TUCSON. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B - CAMPS AND WORKSHOPS: | IN MAY 2016, THE ERIK HITE FOUNDATION OPENED ITS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM FOR SUMMER CAMPS. THE SUMMER CAMP SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM IS INTENDED TO REIMBURSE THE FIRST RESPONDERS' FAMILIES FOR REGISTRATION FEES PAID FOR SUMMER CAMP ATTENDANCE FOR THEIR CHILDREN. FAMILIES SENDING TWO OR MORE CHILDREN TO SUMMER CAMP WILL BE GIVEN PRIORITY CONSIDERATION. QUALIFYING AGES FOR THIS SCHOLARSHIP ARE CHILDREN 5 TO 18 YEARS OLD. OUR GOAL IS TO HELP OFFSET THE COST OF EXPENSIVE SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS AND TO KEEP THEIR CHILDREN ACTIVE DURING A LONG SUMMER VACATION WHILE THEIR PARENTS CONCENTRATE ON WORK. IN FISCAL YEAR 2020-2021, THIS PROGRAM WENT UNUSED BECAUSE OF COVID 19, AND WE HAD NO APPLICANTS. IN FISCAL YEAR 2021-2022 THE PROGRAM WAS REVIVED AND WE WERE ABLE TO SEND 5 DESERVING CHILDREN TO CAMP PROGRAMS OF THEIR CHOICE. IN FISCAL YEAR 2022 - 2023 WE WERE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE 23 CHILDREN AND OFFER $8,205 IN SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT TO FAMILIES. IN FISCAL YEAR 2023 - 2024 THE FOUNDATION GRANTED $10,755 WHICH MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR 29 CHILDREN TO ATTEND SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS OF THEIR PARENTS CHOICE. IN APRIL 2016, THE ERIK HITE FOUNDATION RE-OPENED ITS WORKSHOP PROGRAM. OUR GOALS WITH THESE PROGRAMS ARE TO SUPPORT EDUCATION, WELLNESS AND OUTREACH PROGRAMS. THIS INCLUDED THE ERIK HITE FOUNDATION LENDING SUPPORT TO THE LAUNCH OF THE FIRST SOUTHERN ARIZONA FIRST RESPONDER HEALTH & WELLNESS DAY IN CONJUNCTION WITH TUCSON POLICE DEPARTMENT. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SOME OF OUR DONORS, WE BRING A VARIETY OF WORKSHOPS TO THE FIRST RESPONDERS THAT WE SERVE AND HELP THEM TO BE MORE EDUCATED ON HOW TO FIND THE RESOURCES THEY NEED FOR THEIR FAMILIES. ALSO, WITH THE HELP OF PROFESSIONALS ON A PANEL STYLE-WORKSHOP, WE DEMONSTRATE HOW TO ACCOMPLISH THEIR FAMILY GOALS, WHETHER FINANCIAL STABILITY, MANAGING THEIR ERRATIC SCHEDULES, OR ANY OTHER NEED THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE. IN ADDITION, WE RAISE AWARENESS WITHIN OUR FIRST RESPONDERS COMMUNITY HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAMILIES. WITH THE SHIFT IN PUBLIC SENTIMENT TOWARD LAW ENFORCEMENT WE ARE ALSO NOW SPONSORING A SPOUSES SUPPORT GROUP IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER OUTREACH PROGRAMS WE HAVE OFFERED IN THE PAST. WHILE THESE PROGRAMS ARE LESS VISIBLE, THEY MAY WELL BE MORE VALUABLE TO OUR FIRST RESPONDERS AND THEIR FAMILIES. DURING FISCAL 2021-2022, OUR SPOUSE SUPPORT GROUP REALLY HIT ITS STRIDE, THANKS IN PART TO DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS. WE CURRENTLY HAVE ABOUT 35 FIRST RESPONDER SPOUSES ATTENDING REGULAR MEETINGS. IN FISCAL YEAR 2022-2023 OUR SPOUSE SUPPORT GROUPS WERE HELPING 120 FAMILIES COPE WITH AND SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES. WE WERE DELIGHTED TO ADD ANOTHER SPOUSE SUPPORT GROUP THIS YEAR FOR THE FIRE FIGHTER FAMILIES. EHF PROVIDED THE EQUIVALENT OF MORE $7,200 IN PROFESSIONAL COUNSELING/FACILITATING SERVICES FOR THESE GROUPS. A NEW OUTREACH PROGRAM THAT WE OFFERED IN APRIL, 2024 IS OUR LOVE AND LOGIC PARENTING CLASSES. WE SERVED 7 FAMILIES WITH THE FIRST 4 WEEK CLASS OFFERED AT A COST OF $456. THE ERIK HITE FOUNDATION PLANS TO SCHEDULE 3 OF THE LOVE & LOGIC PARENTING CLASSES IN 2025. |
